The report also pointed out: "In the traditional sense, the top countries are generally EU countries, or the United Kingdom and the United States. This time the dominant position in the Asia-Pacific region will continue to be maintained because it includes some countries that have quickly recovered from the epidemic. ."
Dr. Christian H. Kalin, Partner of Henry Group, said, “Just a year ago, all signs showed that global mobility will continue to rise and travel freedom will increase.People with strong passports will have more access rights than ever before. "
