Methodology

Visa requirement data comes from the open Passport Index dataset (199×199 matrix). "Unlock" rules — cases where a destination admits travelers based on a third country's visa or residence permit — are hand-curated and individually verified against official government sources. Each rule page lists its conditions and source.
