Passengers can easily pass through the E-gates as the gates will be opened automatically after submitting e-passport and the whole process will be completed within 30 seconds, said airport authorities.
Earlier on June 7, twelve E-gates were inaugurated at Dhaka Airport.
E-passports have an in-built microprocessor chip containing details of the holder. The e-gates of Chattogram’s Shah Amanat International Airport will identify air passengers after scanning the e-passport. And the process ensures high security during the verification of travel documents, said authorities.
