EES to launch in October 2025. How will the border check system affect crossing times?

The EU’s long-delayed Entry/Exit System (EES) is scheduled to finally come into force in 2025.

The EES requires all borders to install new scanners - most will not be ready on the launch day.

EU’s ETIAS travel authorisation delayed until 2026.

This year, the new Entry/Exit System (EES) for the EU and Schengen Zone will finally be launched. Coupled with this is the introduction of the ETIAS - the European Travel Information and Authorisation System - as part of the EU’s efforts to improve border security.

The ETIAS travel permit has been delayed yet again, however, until late 2026 with a transitional grace period.

EU countries agree phased launch of Entry/Exit System, ending years of delays.

European Union countries agreed on Wednesday to finally bring into force the Entry/Exit System (EES), the bloc's automated registry for short-stay travellers that has been repeatedly delayed over technical problems and lack of preparedness.

The agreement paves the way for a likely start of operations in autumn, though no fixed date has been set.

"visitors will have to provide their passports on arrival, alongside having a photo of their face taken and their fingerprints scanned electronically"

"The collection of biometric data and the sharing of information in real time are meant to help authorities crack down on those who overstay their short-term visas and commit identity fraud."

EES impact on borders: Eurostar scraps fast-track and Dover delays check system.

The EU’s long-delayed Entry/Exit System (EES) is scheduled to finally come into force in 2025. The EES’s scanning requirements may see delays for Eurostar check-in at the UK border.

2025 soll das Einreise-/Ausreisesystem (EES), eine neue EU-Datenbank in den Bereichen Migration, Justiz und Sicherheit, eingeführt werden.
Beim #EES handelt es sich um ein automatisiertes IT-System, das alle Drittstaatsangehörigen, die für einen Kurzaufenthalt in die EU einreisen, bei jedem Übertritt einer Außengrenze erfassen soll.

Wissenschaftler*innen und Menschenrechtsorganisationen kritisieren, dass das EES Gefahren für die Grund- u. Menschenrechte mit sich bringt.

'Why travelling on #Eurostar from the #UK is about to become much trickier'

'The challenge our #airline friends will have is that all that #EES process is on arrival.”'

Airline passengers could find themselves on 6 October at, say, a small Greek airport which has not had millions invested in staff and kiosks to process biometric data. Passport queues for non-EU travellers may not be a pretty sight.

@GillesVilleneuveFan @ChrisMayLA6 I'll make a sizeable bet that there are plenty of British here in Spain who are ignoring the #90dayrule right now. Call them "illegal immigrants", if you will. A good chunk of those "illegal immigrant" #Gammons voted in favour of #Brexit because of "all the illegal immigrants".

I, for one, am really looking forward to 100% logging & data sharing of all British citizens' entries + exits to/from Schengen. #ees October 2024 #etias in 2025

A new timeline for the EU's new Entry/Exit System (EES) border controls has officially been confirmed by EU ministers.

When it's in force, non-EU travellers entering the Schengen Area will face new border controls. Some anticipate chaos when the scheme launches, while others are hopeful that the repeated delays will give countries enough time to prepare for the change.

Everything you need to know about EES and ETIAS.

Not much has yet been said about it, but expect a deluge of discontent in #Brexit #Britain by the end of this year.

Because then, Britons entering the #Schengen zone, will be required to have their fingerprints taken as well as a biometric face scan, as part of #EES, the EU Entry/Exit System. Britons will also have to pay for an #ESTA type visa.

This is all part of the deal that #BorisJohnson made with the EU.

So, not just the elaborate checking and stamping of #passports anymore. Expect enormous queues at #Dover and lots and lots of complaints about these measures being unfair.
