British holidaymakers planning to travel abroad from October 12 need to be aware of significant changes affecting entry and exit procedures. A new Entry/Exit System (EES) will be implemented, requiring all travellers who are not EU citizens to comply with updated immigration controls.
The EES aims to modernize border checks by digitizing the recording of traveller information, including biometric data, to enhance security and streamline the process. This means that non-EU visitors from the UK will undergo a new registration process upon entering and leaving participating countries.
To avoid delays or complications during travel, holidaymakers are advised to prepare in advance. This may involve ensuring their travel documents are up to date, understanding the new procedures, and allowing extra time at the border.
