what's your data source? if it's not timatic, how do you guarantee it's accuracy? or is accuracy not this "product"'s main concern?
I've collected the information from various websites including wikipedia.

#42Maybe the OP or the makers of this website don't know, but there is a definitive source of visa, passport, and transit permission info that the IATA already publishes to help airlines determine whether they should allow you on a flight. It's called Timatic. It includes such detail as country of travel origin, country of passport issuance, nationality, duration of stay, country of transit, visa/papers held. I would go…

Would have been nice had you commented this as a suggestion without that bashful tone, just my 2 cents.

On top of that if people travel by train or other means it's not that obvious to look on the website of some airline.
Also it's someone sharing their site in a Show HN, constructive feedback (missing data, wrong information) would be helpful but "Why was this even a website worth posting about?" is not.

#47Where did you get these phone numbers (for the United States)? > Police - 999 > Ambulance - 997 > Fire - 998 > Traffic police - 993 Mobile phones - 112 or 911 > Non-emergency ambulance - 1777 > Police hotline - 1800 255 0000 > Traffic police - 6547 0000 None of them seem to be correct, except for 911.

Still, I think my points are valid. Unless this is a personal hobby or tinkering effort, I would advise the OP to invest his/her time on something that is sustainable and not already covered at 10x the expertise by an existing service (in a relatively stable industry, more importantly).
The country content pages contain 6 lines that look like the OP wrote them personally. That is not something that smacks of reliability.
