New Requirements to Enter Europe: EES Starts November 10, 2024

The European Commission has officially confirmed the launch date of the new Entry/Exit System (EES) in the European Union. In a speech at eu-LISA, EU Commissioner for Home Affairs Ylva Johansson announced that the EES will become operational on November 10, 2024.

While this date had been mentioned by various media outlets, this marks the first official confirmation by the EU. Commissioner Johansson highlighted that all necessary legal procedures have been completed, and the system is currently in its final testing phase.

The EES is expected to impact around 700 million travelers to Europe annually. The system will replace manual passport stamping with automated registration of entry and exit data, including biometric information. The primary goals of the EES are to modernize border management, prevent illegal migration, and enhance the security of European citizens.

Given the complexities of the new system, it’s crucial to trust professionals with expertise in immigration regulations. With years of experience, we offer quick solutions for all crew members’ needs, including visa stamping, shore passes, and temporary visas (VSU). Additionally, we can assist with:

 – Italian residence permits,

 – visa consultations,

 – official document translation, and more.
