The Kuwaiti passport was ranked second in the Arab world and 97 in the world according to the index criteria, as the Kuwaiti passport holder is able to enter 96 countries without a visa or an online visa, Al Jarida reported.

According to the list, Luxembourg came first as the best passport, followed by Sweden, then Ireland, Switzerland, and Belgium.

In the Arab world, the Emirates topped (38 in the world), then Kuwait (97), Qatar (98), the Sultanate of Oman (103), and Bahrain (105).
