French border control zone at Port of Dover expands for EU's Entry/Exit System (EES) in autumn, requiring biometric data from UK and non-EU travelers.
The French border control zone at the Port of Dover is expanding ahead of the EU's Entry/Exit System (EES) coming into force in autumn. The EES requires travelers from the UK and other non-EU countries to provide biometric data at the EU border. The changes aim to minimize traffic disruption and create more space to process passengers, with the port relocating passport control and building bespoke facilities for the checks. The EES automated IT system replaces passport stamping and aims to speed up border control.
