Why Biometric Face Verification For Visas, Borders, And Immigration?

Biometric verification allows you to verify identity remotely through a facial and document scan. You can accept submissions by mobile device or computer, providing a convenient and secure identity verification process for travelers – enhancing both security and the overall travel experience. Speeding up visa application procedures and border control can also have critical and wide-reaching implications on business, trade, and tourism.

Biometrics can allow you to authenticate users to quickly and securely cross borders without the need for officer attendance –  enabling efficient and accurate identification of individuals, ensuring only authorized individuals proceed through border controls. This could be a biometric e-gate at an airport or a completely remote border port of entry and exit. Face verification reduces congestion while improving user experience. 

Replacing manual processes is only advisable if the technology replacing humans can offer better security. iProov delivers the highest levels of identity assurance available, while automating traveler identification and screening processes, reducing the need for manual interventions and improving operational efficiency.
