Over the school summer holiday will now benefit from the use of eGates as a faster way to travel through the UK border, with a recent YouGov poll showing that 42% of the UK public plan to jet abroad over the summer.

It stated further that with passenger volumes expected to return to 2019 levels this summer and some ports exceeding those volumes. Border Force expects to see over 34 million air arrivals coming through UK passport control over the coming months.

According to the Immigration Minister Robert Jenrick who said: From next week, families with children over the age of 10 will be able to benefit from quicker entry into the UK using eGates.

He added that this national rollout will make travelling easier for passengers and strengthens the security of the UK border.

“The UK processes more passengers through eGates than any other country – and today’s announcement ensures we remain at the forefront of technology”, the Immigration Minister said.



Meanwhile, the UK processes more passengers through eGates than any other country in the world and is recognised as a global leader in the use of automation at the border.

Alongside increasing eGate capacity, we’re introducing an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) scheme later this year and continuing to expand eVisas which will improve the customer experience at the border.

The national rollout of the expansion of eGates to this age group will come into effect across 15 air and rail ports that currently have 293 eGates.

Border Force continues to work closely with port operators and airlines to make sure all passengers can have a safe and hassle-free journey this summer.
