Singapore Changi Airport and Dubai International Airport, two of the world's busiest airports, are set to go passport-free in early 2024, as biometric technology takes over the need for passports. This is a significant development, as it represents a major step towards a future where international travel is more seamless and efficient.
The new policy passport and visa free policy will be implemented in phases, starting with a few select airports and airlines. In the first phase, eligible passengers will be able to travel without a passport or visa between selected airports in India, the United States, and the United Kingdom. The policy will then be expanded to include more airports and airlines in other countries.
Under the new policy, eligible passengers will be able to check in for their flight using their digital identity. Once they have checked in, they will be able to pass through security and board their flight without having to show a passport or visa.
When the passenger arrives at their destination, they will be able to enter the country using their digital identity. The immigration authorities will use the passenger's digital identity to verify their identity and nationality, and to check if they have any outstanding warrants or travel restrictions.
