A note on Travel scores
Travel scores are derived from IATA Timatic destination counts published in the Henley Passport Index Q2 2026 update, normalized linearly against the global min (Afghanistan, 23 destinations) and max (Singapore, 192). The destination counts shown throughout the index are Henley's combined visa-free and visa-on-arrival score, which we abbreviate to visa-free for readability. Where a country's Travel score and its raw destination count appear to diverge slightly, the difference reflects source-data rounding or the use of supplementary mobility data (visa-on-arrival vs. strict visa-free) rather than a calculation error. UAE's Travel score is manually capped at 94 against the EU-cluster average pending the Q3 2026 refresh.
How CARF affects published Tax scores
Each country's Tax score already reflects all applicable adjustments, including CARF deductions. We do not publish separate pre-CARF and post-CARF scores. A reader comparing Switzerland (Tax 82, Wave 2) and El Salvador (Tax 98, not committed) should understand that part of El Salvador's tax advantage is the absence of a CARF commitment. For the 2027 edition we are considering an additional column showing each country's pre-CARF Tax score for full transparency.
