I found this site called Project Visa on wikipedia (under “visa”). It is an open source project to gather visa and entry requirements for all countries (for all nationalities). They have way too much Google advertising but it still seems like a good resource and a cool idea for a project.

I always used the Foreign Office website for that info, as it gives you latest sit reps as wells as visa reqs.
What would be really helpful, though, would be a single list so you can see, at a glance, which countries demand a visa and which don’t, and which countries offer a visa on arrival service. Such a list would help you to decide where to go next, based on visa convenience.
I’m half way through compiling such a list.

That one is good for non US/UK folks, we can pretty much go anywhere wit minimal visa requirements

I would avoid wikipedia like the plague, anyone can post and amend information on it and the majority of information is posted by school kids and geeks (no offence intended if anyone’s a regular poster….) I would always go with the government official sites, although I have to agree with Lee that a overall up to date database would be handy.

This is a better tool from Virgin Atlantic, you can put in your nationality, residency, destination and it will give you the visa requirements. It is not real detailed but it will give you an idea
