Working Holiday visas: which countries can get one?

A Working Holiday visa lets young adults live and work in another country for up to a year or more. It exists only between countries that have signed an agreement, so the first question is always: which passports qualify? Each page below lists the countries from the official source of the destination, with the date we read it.
