Hi welcome to Deaf Talks News,
In this world, when you want to travel, what are the most important things ?
Money, Passport and Visa.
And for some countries we don't need a visa.
So nowadays money and visas have all been changed to digital.
For example : in India all the documents such as license, school certificates, Aadhar card, everything we can show digital coupes but passports we need carry.
Not only India but all over the world there are no digital passports.
But Finland has launched the world's first smartphone app-best digital passport.
On August 28 the Finnish government launched a new project for digital passports in collaboration with Finland airport authorities.
Initially the scheme was only introduced to certain Finnair passengers returning to the UK from Helsinki.
Digital passport is an app which enables travellers to store their passport information on their smartphone and use it instantly wherever needed.
Passengers will have to download the FinDTC app and verify their facial recognition and biometric data.
No need to carry separate passport books.
The Finnish government said this digital passport helps people to be accessible easily, speed and security.
This will be implemented on a trial basis till February 2024.
After that, Finland said it will examine and consider implementing it nationwide.
Similarly India too soon will get a new e passport but not like the Finnish government.
Instead we will have a chip in the passport which will help to check if it is original or duplicate.
Because there are many fake passports, people are migrating to other countries.
So this e-passport will help to find the original.
Hope you all have understood today’s news.
