English is a leading language among all the world's languages, given its active use in international communication. Therefore, when traveling abroad, many tourists know that knowledge of English will help them navigate the terrain more easily.

We're going to tell you which regions of the world have the highest level of English proficiency and what the situation is with English in Ukraine.

Which countries have the best English language skills?

According to the results of the annual English Proficiency Index for 2023, the situation with the level of English proficiency in different tourist countries turned out to be different. 

The analysis covered 2.2 million adults who took standard EF English tests in 113 countries and allowed us to determine the rating of each country on a scale from 0 to 800 points.

The Netherlands has the highest rating on this list, with a score of 647 points. The top 12 countries with the highest level of English language proficiency are mostly European countries, including Austria, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Belgium, Portugal, Germany, Croatia, and Greece. 

Singapore and South Africa also showed a fairly high level of language proficiency, ranking second and ninth, respectively.

Other countries in the high English proficiency category include Poland, Romania, Hungary, and Slovakia.

Armenia, Turkey, and Azerbaijan took lower places. The latter two showed an even lower level of English proficiency, being in the fourth category (low competence). 

Among the countries with the lowest level of English proficiency are the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tajikistan, and Yemen. A total of 22 countries, including Uzbekistan, Thailand, and Kazakhstan, are in this category.
