Portugal to spend €7.5M to fix Lisbon Airport border delays from new EU biometric system.
Portugal has allocated €7.5 million from 2026 to 2028 to upgrade border control at Lisbon Airport amid ongoing delays caused by the EU’s new Entry/Exit System.
The system, which requires biometric data and launched in phases starting October 12, has led to wait times exceeding seven hours, with some travelers waiting nearly nine hours, disrupting flights and straining airport operations.
The government responded by deploying emergency personnel and planning infrastructure improvements, including e-gates and software, as part of efforts to address congestion and improve processing efficiency.
