From October 20: New EES System for Non-EU Arriving Passengers
A new European Entry/Exit System (EES) for Third-Country Nationals will make the management of Europe’s external borders more efficient and secure.
In Italy, the new Entry/Exit System (EES) will go into operation on October 12, 2025, at Fiumicino and Malpensa airports, and from October 20 at all other airports.
In Naples and Salerno, the EES will initially be activated only for non-EU passengers ARRIVING.
Main advantages:
• Smoother travel: Automated checks will gradually reduce waiting times thanks to electronic records and biometric data
• Smarter borders: The EES will help prevent fraud and irregular migration
• Enhanced security: The system will support law enforcement, making travel safer for everyone
