Video insights

@securebordersuk's TikTok video "Getting through an eGate could soon be up to 25% quicker. Contactless technology is being introduced to existing eGates at UK airports, using facial comparison technology to verify passengers’ identity without them needing to scan their passport. Eligible passengers enter the eGate and the system checks their live image against verified Home Office immigration, travel and passport information. Once those checks are complete, the gate opens automatically. The rollout has started at East Midlands Airport and all airport eGates are set to become contactless by early 2027. Border security checks remain in place and Border Force officers will still be there to assist where needed. And don’t leave your passport at home, you’ll still need to travel with it. #UKNews #Border #Immigration #UKImmigration" has 3,259 views, 60 likes, 2 comments, 0 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
