Important update for non-EU nationals travelling to 29 European countries
A Modern, More EfficientBorder Management System for Europe
The Entry/Exit System (EES) is Europe’s new border management system for registering non-EU nationals travelling for a short stay, each time they cross the external borders of 29 European countries.
The EES was progressively launched on 12 October 2025 at the external borders of the European countries using the system and is fully operational since 10 April 2026.
Fully automated and digital, the EES replaces passport stamping throughout most of Europe.
