Did you know? Barbados

For ten consecutive years, the little coral island of Barbados has quietly held the single most powerful passport in the entire Caribbean. In the 2025 Henley Passport Index it ranked 20th worldwide, opening roughly 163 destinations to its holders visa-free or visa-on-arrival, easily outscoring far larger neighbours. It is a striking footnote of identity-document strength for a nation of fewer than 300,000 people, one that only fully shed the British monarch in 2021 to become the world's newest republic, swapping a Governor-General for its very first home-grown president.

  • Passport power Barbados has held the strongest passport in the Caribbean for ten straight years, ranking 20th globally on the 2025 Henley Passport Index with visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to around 163 destinations.
  • Travel reach A single Barbadian passport unlocks 90-day Schengen stays, eTA-based entry to Canada, and unusually generous 180-day welcomes in Mexico and El Salvador.
  • Republic On 30 November 2021, exactly 55 years after independence, Barbados removed Queen Elizabeth II as head of state and became the world's newest republic, installing Dame Sandra Mason as its first-ever president.
  • Currency The Barbadian dollar has been locked to the US dollar at an official 1.98-to-1 rate (rounded to 2-to-1 in shops) since 1975, one of the world's most enduring currency pegs.
  • Banknotes In 2022 Barbados retired its paper money for polymer banknotes with upgraded security features, while its distinctive one-dollar coin is a seven-sided, equilaterally-curved piece stamped with a flying fish.
  • Parliament The Barbados House of Assembly first met in 1639, making it the third-oldest continuously sitting legislature in the Western Hemisphere, behind only Bermuda and Virginia.
  • Famous envoy In 2018 Barbados named its most famous citizen, Rihanna, as 'Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary,' giving the pop superstar a real diplomatic mandate to promote education, tourism and investment.
  • Presidential visit The only place George Washington ever travelled outside what became the United States was Barbados, which he visited in 1751 and where the house he stayed in still stands.
