Visa requirements for Sammarinese citizens explained

Visa requirements for Sammarinese citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of San Marino. As of July 2023, San Marino citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 173 countries and territories, ranking the San Marino passport 19th in terms of travel freedom according to the Henley Passport Index.^[1] Currently (as of 2020) the San Marino passport is one of the four European "ordinary" passports to provide visa-free access to the People's Republic of China.

Besides the Sammarinese passport, there are only 3 other passports that provide either visa-free entry or entry via an electronic visa or travel authorisation to the world's four largest economies: China (visa-free, 90 days), India (e-Visa, 60 days), the European Union (visa-free, 90 days within 180 days), and the United States (ESTA required for arrivals by air and sea, 90 days): those of Brunei, Taiwan, Singapore.

San Marino and Russia signed a visa-free agreement on 2 December 2021,^[2] however it has not been implemented yet.
