WTTC congratulates EU on adoption of new European Travel Information & Authorization System

WTTC congratulates the EU on the adoption of the new European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS), a pre-authorization system which allows the EU to know who is entering the EU, from where and if they pose a risk to EU security.

Xa i-ETIAS iqalisa ukusebenza, bonke abemi belizwe lesithathu abangenayo i-visa abaceba ukuya kummandla we-Schengen kuya kufuneka bafake isicelo sogunyaziso lwangaphambi kokuhamba. Injongo yoku kukwenza lula uhambo oluya kwi-EU kunye nokwenza lula ukujonga umda.

During negotiations, WTTC stressed the importance of the process to be made as easy as possible for legitimate travelers.

In addition to the ease of process, WTTC also advocated for the fees to remain at a reasonable level, one that did not discourage travelers from coming to Europe. The final fee of seven euros meets this balance.

“We see this as an important first step in the digitalization of travel. The ultimate aim will be the use of biometric technology to ensure seamless, more efficient and more secure travel. WTTC is committed to enhancing security and improving the entire passenger journey. This will essentially maximize the potential of the Travel & Tourism to create jobs and drive economic growth,’ stated Gloria Guevara, President & CEO World Travel & Tourism Council.

Ukufaka isicelo se-ETIAS kujolise ekukhawulezeni nasekulula, akufuni ngaphezu koxwebhu lokuhamba, ikhadi letyala kunye nokufikelela kwi-intanethi. Uninzi lwabafaki-zicelo luya kufumana impendulo eyakhayo kwimizuzu nje embalwa. Ukuba kuya kufuneka ingcaciso eyongezelelweyo, amaxwebhu okanye udliwano-ndlebe, okunokwenzeka okwahlukileyo kuya kunikwa kuthathelwa ingqalelo imeko yomhambi.

WTTC welcomes the fact that the needs of the travel and tourism community were taken into account whilst ensuring enhanced EU security.
