paragraph_text: Exit System (EES)
  
  In October 2025, the European Union plans to implement the Entry/Exit System (EES), an automated IT system designed to register travelers from third countries each time they cross an EU external border. This system will replace the traditional passport stamping method, utilizing facial recognition and fingerprint scans to record entries and exits.
