The EES will apply to all UK citizens entering the EU and is a result of Brexit. It will be in operation at all EU airports, except Ireland, when UK travellers arrive. It will also apply to ferry passengers departing Dover, Eurostar departures from St Pancras International in London and at Eurotunnel in Folkestone.
