When it comes to design, the Philippine passport undoubtedly shines brightly!
In a post on Instagram, the modern culture and lifestyle brand Hypebeast shared a compilation of the most visually appealing passports globally, which featured the Philippines among them.
Hypebeast featured the “iconic Philippine eagle” print on its flip cover.
“Following the unveiling of Switzerland’s freshly redesigned passport, we gathered some of the most impressively crafted passports globally,” it started.
“From Norway’s UV-reactive landscapes to Japan’s ukiyo-e art, the Philippines’ recognizable Philippine eagle, New Zealand’s stylish black cover, and more — these passports raise the standard for design,” Hypebeast noted.
Other nations featured on this roster include Norway, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, Finland, New Zealand, Hungary, and Belgium, apart from the Philippines.
At least our passport scores well in terms of design, yes? Based on the most recent Henley Passport Index, the Filipino passport stands at 75th place worldwide, dropping two positions compared to before.
