Singapore plans to allow all foreign visitors to clear immigration using automated checkpoint lanes without the need for prior enrollment.
Key Points
Background: Currently, the automated lanes are available only to Singapore residents and passport holders from 60 jurisdictions. The system, which launched in 2020, utilizes multi-modal biometrics that record travelers’ iris, facial and fingerprint information. An additional 230 automated lanes are scheduled for completion this year.
