The EU is reportedly set to postpone the launch of ETIAS, its €20 travel authorisation system, until 2027. Multiple outlets cite reporting that links the delay to difficulties experienced with the rollout of the related biometric entry-exit system, EES, which has faced problems and scheduling delays this year. ETIAS is designed to require certain travellers to obtain advance authorisation before crossing EU external borders. The reported shift extends the timeline for implementation of the travel authorisation after operational and technical issues around EES contribute to uncertainty in the overall migration and border-management roadmap. The Financial Times is referenced in at least one report as the source of the claim that the EU plans to push ETIAS back to 2027. The reports do not indicate that the scheme has been cancelled, but they describe the postponement as a response to challenges encountered in establishing the broader systems that ETIAS relies on.
