What Operators Must Know About eu-LISA Registration  

The eu-LISA IT system will go live in September 2022. Here is what operators must know about the eu-LISA carriers’ registration process.

Air carriers, sea carriers, and international carriers transporting groups overland by coach can now register for the Entry/Exit System (EES) and the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) through the eu-LISA website.

This is important to share specific information when transporting passengers to the Schengen Area.

EES: Carrier will verify if a third-country national is traveling to the EU and a short stay, single, or double entry visa has already used the number of entries authorized by the visa.

ETIAS: Carrier will verify, prior to boarding that their visa-exempt passengers have a valid travel authorization.
