The International Air Transport Association IATA published the results of several digital identity Proofs of Concept PoCs completed with the support of airlines, airports, technology providers and governments across Europe and Asia-Pacific.
The successful PoCs demonstrated that contactless, biometric-enabled international travel is already achievable with digital identity replacing paper documentation.
Working together as part of the IATA Strategic Partnerships Program , the partners tested how digital identity stored in mobile wallets and biometric verification can support seamless passenger journeys without repeated paper document checks.
