Recently, an official from Bureau of Immigration (BI) told Philippine News Agency (PNA) that the government will soon be installing 'e-gates' in June to hasten BI transactions. [caption id="" align="alignnone" width="720"] Image via ABS-CBN News[/caption] According to the BI, about 18 units of the e-gate will be deployed in the country’s major airports, including those in Clark, Davao, and Kalibo, and the new airport in Cebu. BI Port Operations Division Chief Red Mariñas told in an exclusive interview that using the e-gate will only take 12-15 seconds as passengers will only have to swipe their passports, have biometrics, and undergo facial capturing. Mariñas explained that the e-gates will be used by Filipinos only and will not lessen the number of immigration officers occupying the airports. “Hopefully, (all of the e-gates) will be in place by the end of the year,” he said.
