Travel facilitation initiatives are efforts by governments and organizations to make international travel smoother, quicker, and more secure. They involve simplifying visa processes, harmonizing entry requirements, improving border procedures, and using technology like biometric data and shared databases. These initiatives aim to reduce wait times, enhance safety, and promote tourism and trade by making it easier for people to cross borders efficiently and securely. Overall, they support economic growth and regional integration by removing unnecessary barriers to travel while maintaining security and standards.
