Finland becomes the first country in the world to test digital travel documents

The Finnish Border Guard has announced that Finns will be the first in the world to test digital travel documents starting today, August 28.

According to the Border Guard, all Finns on Finnair flights traveling to London, Manchester and Edinburgh will be able to test the digital travel document.

This means that they will have the opportunity to go through checks faster without having to wait for a long period, SchengenVisaInfo.com reports.

As explained, passengers will be able to go through the procedures faster by registering as voluntary users of a digital travel document.

However, it is emphasized that the document can only be tested at the Helsinki airport. Those who will register in the system will be able to test the digital travel document until the end of February 2024.

The digital travel document, known as DTC (Digital Travel Credentials), is being tested for the first time in the world, as the Border Guard explains. The DTC is a digital version of the physical passport and is as reliable as the latter./ CNA
