From December 1, Russia Will Collect Biometric Data of International Visitors at Moscow Airports Russia will collect biometric data From 1 December 2024, Russia will collect biometric data at Moscow airports to increase border security. This experimental initiative will expand nationwide by 2025, if successful. The system includes exemptions and multilingual support to ensure smooth implementation. Aligning with global practices, Russia’s approach combines advanced technology with efficient, secure immigration processes to accommodate international travellers effectively. Why is Russia Introducing Biometric Data Collection? Russia will collect biometric data to strengthen border security and improve immigration efficiency. This initiative includes capturing fingerprints and facial images at designated checkpoints. By implementing these advanced measures, Russia aims to reduce illegal activities and streamline travel processes. Multilingual support ensures international travellers understand the requirements clearly. The Russian government has instructed its Ministry of Digital Development to publish explanatory information in languages like French, Kazakh, and Uzbek, ensuring accessibility for global visitors. This progressive measure aligns with global practices, reflecting the growing reliance on biometric technologies for enhancing national safety. Who Must Provide Biometric Data? Most foreign nationals entering Russia through designated checkpoints must comply with this new requirement. Russia will collect biometric data from travellers arriving at Moscow airports and the Mashtakovo border crossing. However, exemptions apply to children under six, diplomats, Belarus citizens, and specific officials. These exemptions aim to balance security needs with practical considerations for vulnerable groups and essential personnel. By focusing on those likely to pose security risks, Russia ensures its border controls remain effective yet considerate. These specific measures reflect an effort to implement advanced technologies responsibly. Expansion Plans for Biometric Data Collection
