Embed a ThonRetire ranking

Six rankings, each one a small table you can paste into an article, a newsletter template or a client brief. Every embed shows the top 5 destinations, the figure they are ranked on, the counterweight column beside it, and the month that figure was last verified. Free under CC-BY-4.0; the only condition is the credit line that comes with the code.

What we ask, and why the credit line sits outside the frame

Use it anywhere, including commercially. The only condition is that you credit ThonRetire and link back. That is the whole licence. The second line of every snippet below is how you satisfy it, and it is deliberately outside the <iframe> rather than inside it.

A link inside a frame belongs to the framed document, not to your page — so an embed that keeps its credit hidden inside the box gives the publisher a tidier paste and gives us nothing. We would rather be honest about the trade than quietly take a worse deal: you get a maintained table with a verification date on it, and we get one visible line of credit on your page. Restyle that line to match your typography if you like. Please keep the link.

The six rankings

No two of these orders agree with each other, and none of them agrees with our overall ranking — the disagreement is measured and printed on each ranking page. Pick the cut that matches what your piece is actually about rather than the one that sounds most general.

What the code does not do

There is no script to add to your page, no cookie, no analytics beacon and no web font request. The frame is one HTML document with its own inline styles, drawn in the system font so it borrows nothing from anyone. It is 380pixels tall by default and scrolls rather than clips if your column is unusually narrow, and it follows your reader’s light or dark preference. It is marked noindex, so it will never compete with your page in search results.

If your CMS strips iframes, the same figures are in the downloadable dataset — three CSVs and a JSON file under the same licence, each fact carrying its own verification date, freshness status and a link to the government page it came from.

These numbers move. Say when you took them.

An embed renders from the live fact store, so it updates when the underlying rule changes — which is the point, and also the catch. A figure you quote in your own prose today may not match the frame beside it in a year. Our data was last verified July 2026, and every change is dated in public with an RSS feed if you want to be told.

If you need something that will never move — a citation in a printed piece, an academic reference, a figure you are prepared to defend in three years — use the 2026 edition instead. It is dated, hashed, downloadable and never recomputed. Cite that one; this one is alive on purpose.

Writing about this and want more than a table?

Answers with sources takes the 14 questions people actually ask and shows the working, the method page writes down every weight and penalty in the score, and why country averages mislead is the finding we would most like someone to check. Corrections are welcome and get dated in public when they land.
