Dubai Launches Click and Travel Biometric Tech for Faster Airport Immigration
Dubai now has a faster airport immigration system called Click and Travel. Click and Travel is likely the first of its kind smart immigration technology that decreases the time to process and enter and exit a country. The Click and Travel system replaces the need for immigration officers to develop muscle memory, as the system relies on high-tech biometric and other immigration related tools. The typical 55 seconds to process each transaction is reduced to 12 to 15 seconds.
The initiative has been launched by the General Directorate of Identity and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) Dubai as part of Dubai’s continued efforts to develop smart airport services and improve the passenger journey. The technology aims to reduce waiting times, support better crowd management and provide greater flexibility during busy travel periods and emergency situations.
The introduction of Click and Travel marks another step in Dubai’s transformation towards a fully digital and technology-driven travel ecosystem, where passengers can experience faster and more convenient immigration procedures.
