๐ The EU will implement a new Entry/Exit System (EES) starting October 2025 for non-EU visitors.

๐ธ Travelers must submit biometric data (facial image + fingerprints) at the border.
-
โ This change eliminates manual passport stamping, making border checks more digital.
-
โฑ๏ธ The system automatically tracks the duration of each visit to prevent overstays.
-
๐ It applies to citizens from visa-exempt countries, including the UK, USA, Canada, etc.
-
๐ Biometric data will be stored for three years and shared with security agencies.
-
๐ The goal is to enhance border security and reduce illegal immigration.
-
๐ฎ๐ช Ireland is exempt from the EES due to its opt-out from Schengen.
-
๐ก Travelers should allow extra time at borders and prepare for longer processing initially.
-
๐ฑ Future versions may include mobile pre-registration options to speed up the process.
