Having an Italian passport in 2023 means travelling almost effort-free to the majority of world countries, in particular the world\u2019s top travel destinations, and even with fewer hassles than when travelling with any other European Union passport, SchengenVisaInfo.com reports.<\/p>

According to a new Passport Index has been created by VisaGuide.World<\/a>, which is the first ever to rank world passports in a more comprehensive and accurate way, based on a carefully-built formula that takes more factors into consideration, Italy has scored 88.28 points in the index, out of 100, while the first two, Singapore and Japan, have scored 90.28 and 90.01 respectively.<\/p>
