Countries that have accepted the World Passport

The following is a list of countries which, on at least one occasion, have recognized the World Passport on a "de facto" basis, by stamping a national visa and/or entry/exit stamp.

I like the fact that they argue their passport isn't fake because some bored / overworked customs guy once stamped it.

Their website has a Legal section as well, but I'm too tired to look through it.

The World Passport is a fantasy travel document sold by the World Service Authority, a non-profit organization founded by Garry Davis in 1954.

Wikipedia's throwing down.

Also I had to find this list:

https://worldservice.org/visas.html

They're claiming 191 out of 192 countries recognise their shitty document.

Yes thats a document. A meaningless one, but it sure is a document.

They are for sure including countries that have stamped it "no entry." Technically it has been stamped. I'm pretty sure policy is to stamp a little logo and some check boxes onto whatever document is presented, and if it's not a legit document, it is stamped as such.

"Yeah I'm gonna get me a World Passport and get me out of the weight of all this oppressive government, I might be able to get into... (checks notes) Burkina Faso."

On second thought going to a country which has been hit by proper coups, direct Islamic State interference & has legal slavery may actually be an enlightening experience for the type of people to buy this. Splurge away!

It impresses me with how many stamps of entry they actually collected over time. Even if for some of countries all of the stamp samples are for the same year more than quarter of a century ago

You could have your passport stamped at the tourists' office in Machu Pichu (to show that you have been there). I should have got my world passport stamped! (I took a picture with a Lama instead of doing that queue).
