EU to Roll out New Biometric Entry-Exit System for Global Visitors this November

by Jesse Smith | Truth Unmuted

In a major advancement for global travel, the European Union plans to implement the Entry-Exit System (EES) on November 10, as stated by EU Commissioner Ylva Johansson. This dystopian biometric system aims to facilitate border crossings and will mandate that travelers from non-EU nations, including the UK, provide digital photographs and fingerprints.

According to Euronews:

The Entry-Exit System will be an automated registration system for UK and other non-EU travellers who don’t require a visa to enter the EU.

Travellers will need to scan their passports or other travel document at a self-service kiosk each time they cross an EU external border. It will not apply to legal residents or those with long stay visas.

The system will register the traveller’s name, biometric data, and the date and place of entry and exit. Facial scans and fingerprint data will be retained for three years after each trip.

It will apply when entering all EU member states, apart from Cyprus and Ireland, as well as four non-EU countries in the Schengen Area: Iceland, Lichtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.

The EES is being introduced to bolster border security and identify travellers who overstay their permitted time in the Schengen Area (90 days within a 180 day period).

The biometric surveillance state is advancing rapidly and initiatives like the EES serve to solidify its ominous presence.
