Travizory Border Security SA is excited to announce a major step forward in border management technology with the signing of a contract with the government of Saint Kitts and Nevis. This agreement paves the way for the implementation of an advanced Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) system, set to launch in Spring 2025. With this move, Saint Kitts and Nevis will become the first Caribbean nation to introduce such sophisticated border security technology.
The new eTA system is a key element of the government’s broader strategy to position Saint Kitts and Nevis as a leader in digital innovation. By integrating state-of-the-art technologies, such as artificial intelligence and facial biometrics, the system aims to enhance national security, simplify traveler processing, and improve the overall tourism experience. This initiative is aligned with the nation’s vision to evolve into a Sustainable Island State, blending sustainability with modern technology.
Speaking at a stakeholder meeting to introduce the new system, Prime Minister and Minister of National Security, Citizenship and Immigration, the Honourable Dr. Terrance M. Drew, emphasized the significance of this development:
“Saint Kitts and Nevis is proud to lead the region in adopting this innovative system. The eTA not only strengthens our security but also simplifies processes for travelers and citizens, reducing wait times, enhancing efficiency, and elevating our tourism experience. This initiative reflects our commitment to digital transformation as a cornerstone of becoming a Sustainable Island State.”
Travizory’s CEO, Renaud Irminger, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership: “We are honored to collaborate with Saint Kitts and Nevis in pioneering this transformative eTA system. Our technology is designed to provide robust security measures while ensuring a seamless and efficient experience for travelers. This project exemplifies how digital solutions can drive national progress and set new standards in border management.
“AI and facial biometrics sit at the heart of our market-leading portfolio, allowing governments to conduct robust security screening at scale. Through responsible application of these technologies, our systems have been instrumental in disrupting the operations of criminal organizations.”
The new eTA system will streamline both air and maritime arrivals, offering a fully paperless process that significantly reduces wait times at ports of entry. Powered by Travizory’s cutting-edge BorderTech suite, the system will include traveler-facing web and mobile applications for eTA applications, an AI-driven risk-assessment engine, and a centralized approval platform. Additionally, it will feature Travizory’s FaceLane
, an innovative biometric corridor that provides seamless, non-stop passenger screening and border control upon entry.
This partnership highlights Travizory’s dedication to providing state-of-the-art border security solutions tailored to the specific needs of countries around the globe. By embracing this digital transformation, Saint Kitts and Nevis is setting a new benchmark in the Caribbean for secure, efficient, and modern border management practices.
