Funding for European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS)

This regulation determines how funds from the EU general budget will be allocated to develop and implement the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS). This system is designed to enhance security by screening travelers from visa-exempt countries before they enter the Schengen area.

The funding affects the administrative and technical setup of EU border controls. Once operational, the system will require travelers from non-visa countries to apply for authorization prior to their trip.
