Digital Yatra facility extended to foreign travelers at Kempegowda International Airport

The 'Digi Yatra' facility, which uses facial recognition technology, has been extended to foreign travelers departing from Kempegowda International Airport. The Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) stated that the service, which is currently in the initial experimental phase, will be fully operational starting November 1. Initially, the service is being provided through the 'Digi Yatra Beta' app for passengers traveling from Bengaluru to London, Male, and Kuala Lumpur. This system verifies identity using the electronic chip in the passenger's e-passport and prepares a digital travel identity document after confirming the photograph.
