Entry/Exit System (EES): New EU Entry Procedure for Travelers from Non-EU Countries
New from December 2, 2025
The Entry/Exit System (EES) is a new digital border control system being introduced across the EU starting in 2025. It will automatically record entry and exit data of non-EU travelers, including biometric data such as fingerprints and facial images. The EES will replace passport stamps and ensure faster, more secure border controls.
