The European Union has introduced digital border management systems to modernise the control of passengers entering the EU and Schengen Area. With the Entry-Exit System, carriers must combine physical document checks with system-based verification through the eu-LISA Carrier Interface.
The interface returns an OK, NOT OK or N/A response to support the boarding process. These statuses are not always definitive, so teams must understand what each result means and when further document checks are required.
What is included in the guide?
The Streamlane eu-LISA EES Guide gives air carriers a practical overview of:
- an explanation of eu-LISA, EES and ETIAS
- which flights and passengers require an EES check;
- how to interpret Carrier Interface responses;
- how to manage NOT OK cases;
- specific rules for crew;
- the rollout and transition timeline;
- and the eu-LISA registration process.
Automate EES and ETIAS checks with Streamlane
As a certified eu-LISA service provider, Streamlane is directly connected to the Carrier Interface and automates passenger and crew checks for operators. Passenger data is securely transmitted from the operator’s system or through the GOVlink portal, and the authority response is returned directly to the operator’s system with clear operational guidance.
This gives operators immediate visibility into each passenger’s status, helps teams make the correct boarding decision and reduces the risk of delays or non-compliance.
