Only British people can travel to more countries without a visa than the people of the Nordic countries.

Denmark, Sweden and Finland come second, third and fourth on a bi-annual list compiled by Henley & Partners, a company specialising on immigration and citizenship. Norway is on a shared seventh place while Iceland is 13th. 

The differences are small, however. Danes can travel to 164 countries without a visa, while the Icelandic can travel to 151 countries. Afghanistan comes bottom, as Afghans can travel to only 26 countries without a visa.

Yet large countries like China, India and Russia also end up far down the list. The Chinese can travel visa-free to 38 countries, Indians to 50 and Russians to 83.
