According to The Local, the European Entry/Exit System (EES) biometric border framework is intended to be fully operational. However, the publication notes that the situation regarding the rollout remains distinct for passengers travelling between the United Kingdom and France.
Specific arrangements apply to those using the Eurostar rail service, the Eurotunnel, and the port of Dover. The Local reports that these key transit points face a different set of circumstances compared to other border crossings as the implementation process continues.
