WTTC congratulates the EU on the adoption of the new European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS), a pre-authorization system which allows the EU to know who is entering the EU, from where and if they pose a risk to EU security.
Wann d'ETIAS a Betrib kommt, mussen all Visa-befreit Drëttlänner Staatsbierger, déi plangen an d'Schengenberäich ze reesen, fir eng Pre-Rees Autorisatioun ze gëllen. D'Zil dovun ass d'Reesen an d'EU ze vereinfachen an d'Grenzkontrollen ze vereinfachen.
During negotiations, WTTC stressed the importance of the process to be made as easy as possible for legitimate travelers.
In addition to the ease of process, WTTC also advocated for the fees to remain at a reasonable level, one that did not discourage travelers from coming to Europe. The final fee of seven euros meets this balance.
“We see this as an important first step in the digitalization of travel. The ultimate aim will be the use of biometric technology to ensure seamless, more efficient and more secure travel. WTTC is committed to enhancing security and improving the entire passenger journey. This will essentially maximize the potential of the Travel & Tourism to create jobs and drive economic growth,’ stated Gloria Guevara, President & CEO World Travel & Tourism Council.
ETIAS gëtt gratis fir ënner 18s an iwwer 70s.
Demande fir ETIAS zielt séier an einfach ze sinn, erfuerdert net méi wéi e Reesdokument, Kreditkaart an Zougang zum Internet. Eng grouss Majoritéit vun de Bewerber kritt bannent Minutten eng positiv Äntwert. Wann zousätzlech Informatiounen, Dokumentatioun oder en Interview néideg wier, ginn verschidden Méiglechkeeten ugebueden, ënner Beuechtung vun der Situatioun vum Reesender.
WTTC welcomes the fact that the needs of the travel and tourism community were taken into account whilst ensuring enhanced EU security.
Den neie System gouf haut (Donneschdeg, 5. Juli) an der Plenière vum Europaparlament zu Stroossbuerg ugeholl a soll 2021 a Betrib kommen.
