The current launch date for the EU entry/exit system (EES) is set for October 2024, chosen to avoid peak traffic periods and to not coincide with the Paris Olympics this summer. However, challenges and delays in member states' preparations for EES could potentially result in further delays.
The European Commission emphasized that severe challenges persist in ensuring member states are ready for the EES launch in Autumn 2024. Some countries like Germany, Norway, and Switzerland are still progressing with their EES preparations, while others like Portugal, Malta, and Bulgaria have outstanding issues to address, urging urgent actions for timely implementation.
