The Entry-Exit-System EES - or Entry/Exit System (EES) - is a large-scale IT system planned by the European Union for the automatic monitoring of the border-crossing of third-country nationals (non EU/EEA/Swiss citizens). Envisioned to replace passport stamps, the system will be installed at external points of the Schengen Area, e.g. airports and seaports, beginning sometime in the third quarter of 2021.[1][2] EES will be based on the EU-Regulation 2017/2226.[3]

Function

The task of the system is to collect data of border-crossing of third-country nationals at the external border of the EU and to abolish passport stamps. Collected data will include the name and date of birth of the traveller, as well as dates of entry and exit into/from the EU. Beside these alphanumeric data points, it is planned to store biometric data like pictures and fingerprints.

Operation

It will be operated by the EU's IT agency Eu-Lisa. The system launch is scheduled in 2020. [4]
