Global E-passport Market, By Application (Leisure Travel, Business Travel) By Technology (Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Biometric), and opportunities and forecast 2020-2027
E-passport Market Overview The global E-passport market is expected to grow at a significant rate in the forthcoming years. Because of a number of variables, the global e-passport market is on the rise. For security concerns, increased global travel for both leisure and business is mandating a high level of protection. Regular passports without biometric capability run the risk of allowing illegal individuals to board international flights. Such ill-intentioned travellers run the risk of jeopardizing the safety of other passengers on the aircraft. E-passports are a solid option to avoid such instances, driving the e-passport market.
Furthermore, emerging laws, such as ICAO, are assisting the adoption of e-passports by allowing governments to add strong security safeguards for international travel. As a result, the e-passport market is boosted. Finally, outsourcing visa services necessitates the inclusion of a security layer to passports. Individuals seeking visas for countries that outsource their visa service to a third party must have an additional layer of protection added to their passports. E-passports have been used to address the security flaws in traditional passports, and are consequently regarded as a formidable answer. The global e-passport market is benefiting as a result of this.
