SINGAPORE: Singapore will install a further 230 automated lanes at its border checkpoints this year, on top of the 160 added in 2023, said the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority on Tuesday (Feb 13).
This comes as Singapore saw 192.8 million travellers clearing its checkpoints in 2023, an increase of 84 per cent or 88 million more people compared with 2022.

These machines are very efficient compared to the old ones using fingerprints

These machines are also found in Changi airport. You will still need finger print, and for those bespectacled will need to remove your spectacles before the machines can read or recognise your facial features.
Last month when I was traveling out the machines didn’t work well but last night when I returned back home the machines works perfect.
