Overview

EES system comes into force at airports: Europe tightens its grip on those who overstay their stay Since October 12, 2025, the digital Entry/Exit (EES) system has come into force at airports and ports throughout the Schengen Area. This system replaces the manual stamp in the passport with an electronic record with passport data, fingerprints and facial photo. All entries and exits of non-EU travelers are digitally recorded, with date, time and border location. One of the central objectives of the EES is to allow authorities to detect those who exceed the legal period of stay in Schengen countries, which is a maximum of 90 days in a period of 180 days. With this, immigration police will have an integrated and safer system to track foreigners who remain illegally on European territory. The new system increases the authorities' oversight power, and more passengers may be denied entry to European airports. Longer queues and delays at airports are already being observed at this time of implementation. The implementation is gradual: the system will be fully adopted by April 10, 2026, according to announced official forecasts.
