Prague Airport says the EU Entry/Exit System applies at its border crossings from 12 October 2025, with non-EU short-stay travellers registering their face and fingerprints at passport control or at a self-service kiosk on their first entry. Children under 12 are exempt from fingerprinting.
Border Security Report wrote on 25 October 2022 that Czech Border Police and the airport had tested secunet easykiosks with an average pre-enrolment time of 89 seconds, with 58 easykiosks and 17 easygates planned. Expats.cz reported on 13 October 2025 that the EES start brought waits of up to 90 minutes and kiosks that were not working at first.
What supports the record?
Sources are attached to individual claims. An operator statement supports a reported status; it does not, on its own, establish an independently measured benefit.
