IMPACT – MEDIUM
What is the change? The United Kingdom has expanded access to eGates to nationals of Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea and the United States.
What does the change mean? Nationals of these seven countries will be able to use automated self-service gates at 15 international airports in the U.K. and two Eurostar terminals in Brussels and Paris. They will also not be required to fill out a landing card when entering the U.K.
Analysis & Comments: Monday’s expansion of access to eGates marks the first time the self-serve terminals will be available to non-EU/EEA nationals. Nationals of Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea and the United States will enjoy easier entry procedures when traveling to the U.K.
