Ukraine will begin to record the biometric data of foreigners with January 1
According to Turchinov, 157 points were equipped for data fixation.
The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Arsen Avakov said:
President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko 1 September 2017 of the year put into effect the decision of the National Security and Defense Council, which in Ukraine introduced the biometric control from January 1 on 2018 when foreign citizens cross the border, including citizens of the Russian Federation. By this time, the “national system of biometric verification and identification of citizens of Ukraine, foreigners and stateless persons at checkpoints across the state border of Ukraine and at checkpoints for entry and exit” should begin to operate. This decision was a kind of compromise result of the idea of introducing a visa regime with Russia, which was actively discussed in Kiev.
