The upcoming initiative is part of the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority’s “New Clearance Concept.” The concept will use multi-modal biometrics to verify travellers’ identities through their unique iris, facial, and fingerprint details.

The automated lanes will progressively replace existing lanes and manual counters at checkpoints, offering a more seamless immigration experience for all travellers in Singapore.
