How this compares
The Burmese passport ranks #186 worldwide, opening 42 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (12 visa-free, 27 with a visa on arrival and 3 with an eTA). Lesotho is not among them — it is one of the 107 destinations that still require an embassy visa or an application before departure.
In the other direction, Mosotho citizens traveling to Myanmar face a different rule: visa required.
Southern Africa is closed to spontaneous travel for Burmese passport holders: none of its 6 destinations can be entered without an application first.
