ePassport

An ePassport, or electronic passport, is an enhanced travel document that contains a microchip embedded in its cover. This chip securely stores your personal information, such as your name, date of birth, and a digital version of your photograph. When you pass through border controls, special scanners read this data to verify your identity quickly and accurately, reducing wait times and increasing security. EPassports are designed to help prevent identity theft and fraud, making international travel safer. They function as regular passports, but with added technology for improved security and efficiency.
