Eurotunnel says phased EU digital border rollout will prevent UK disruption ...Middle East

News by : (Daily Sun) -

Eurotunnel operator Getlink’s Chief Executive Officer Yann Leriche stated that the Entry/Exit System (EES) will launch on October 12 after significant delays.

It will eventually replace manual passport stamping for all non-EU citizens, helping the bloc track compliance with its 90-day visa-free travel rule and strengthen border controls.

For British travellers using Eurotunnel at Folkestone, the Port of Dover, or Eurostar at St Pancras International, the process will occur at the border before they depart the UK.

Passenger vehicle checks will follow in November at Dover and by the end of the year at Eurotunnel.

Authorities will have the ability to suspend checks for short periods if processing times become excessively long, according to the CEO.

Leriche emphasised that after the six-month phase-in period, the process would be perfectly manageable.

The system does not apply to EU members Ireland and Cyprus.

Since April, European visitors to Britain have had to purchase an electronic travel permit in advance for their trips. – Reuters
