Europe’s Entry/Exit System changes how many non-EU short-stay travellers are recorded at Schengen external borders. Travellers should allow extra time at airports and border crossings, especially during busy periods.
Quick answer
Plan more border-control buffer time, check airline guidance, and make sure passport details and itinerary timing are accurate before travel.
Why it matters
EES records travel document data, biometric data and entry/exit information for eligible short-stay travellers. It replaces traditional passport stamping at Schengen external borders.
