As of October 12, 2025, the EU has embraced a transformative digital border initiative, the Entry/Exit System, fundamentally altering how non-EU travelers are monitored when entering or exiting the region. This groundbreaking system ensures a seamless experience by electronically capturing passport data, biometric details, and entry/exit information, replacing manual passport stamping practices. 

Implemented over a six-month period, the system's phased rollout allows for gradual adaptation, benefiting travelers, border authorities, and the transport industry alike. By April 10, 2026, the system will be fully operational across all external border crossing points, enhancing security, convenience, and efficiency.
