Webinar 23.9. | The Implementation of EES and ETIAS

by

On September 23, 3pm – 4pm CEST (klo 16 – 17 Suomen aikaa) Nomadic’s Carsten Østberg will join Fragomen Partner Jo Antoons and Immigration Manager Andreia Ghimis for an exploration of the EU’s Entry/Exit System (EES) and ETIAS. They’ll discuss how automation is reshaping borders—and, crucially, what this means for travellers, employers, and global mobility programs.

With EES launching on 12 October 2025 and ETIAS expected in late 2026, this session will explore how automation is reshaping borders – and what it means for travellers, employers, and global mobility programs.

EU:n Entry-Exit Systemin käyttöönotto lykkääntyy jälleen

by

The EU has once again delayed the rollout its new electronic border control system after Germany, France and the Netherlands warned the bloc’s central IT infrastructure is not ready.

The long-delayed Entry-Exit System (EES) had been due to launch on 10 November, however EU home affairs commissioner Ylva Johansson on Thursday confirmed the November date is ”no longer on the table”, according to multiple reports. In a meeting of EU interior ministers, Johansson said the commission does not yet have a new timeline for the start of EES, but that it is now considering ”a phased approach… not a big bang of all border crossing points at the same time”.

EES is a biometric system which will use digital photographs and fingerprints for registering travellers from non-EU countries, including the UK, when they cross the EU’s external border. It will apply to both short-stay visa holders and visa-exempt travellers.
