According to CTOnews.com on September 7, Finland has launched a pilot scheme for "DTC digital passports". Now if Finnish residents want to travel to parts of the UK, they can choose to give up paper passports and use smartphones instead.

According to the Finnish Border Bureau, at present, Finns can use "DTC digital passports" to travel to Manchester, London and Edinburgh. Border inspectors only need to confirm the digital travel vouchers (DTC) of these Finns to cross the border smoothly.

It is reported that the pilot program, which will last until the end of February 2024, is intended to "make the cumbersome border security check process a simpler and faster part", Finland said.

Finnish passengers who need to take part in the test are required to download an App named FIN DTC Pilot, register at and go to the Finnish Wanta General Police Station, take passport photos for identification, and send exit data to the Finnish Border Service within 36 hours before departure.

After inquiry, CTOnews.com, the border bureau of Finland, ▲ Touyuan, learned that apart from Finland, Croatia will also experiment with the digital passport function "later this year" to launch relevant services for residents departing from Zagreb International Airport. The Netherlands and Canada have also made relevant plans before, but there is no more news later.
