The Entry/Exit System (EES) is an automated IT system for registering non-EU nationals travelling for a short stay, every time they cross the external borders of European countries using the system, including Belgium. This registration is carried out automatically for travellers who require a short-stay visa (maximum 90 days) and for those who do not need a visa. No prior action is necessary on their part. The EES records entry and exit dates, and biometric data (fingerprints and facial image). The system also records refusals of entry.
