⚠There is a slight error in my wording that can cause some confusion. Sorry about this. I should have said, "There are four non-EU countries: Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland".

This is going to sound crazy, but what this new entry and exit system Will do for those to have bilateral agreements? what I mean is this I’m an American and the US has a bilateral agreement with various countries, including France that predates the Shingen convention. to stay an extra 90 days past the normal 90 day visa. and since Francis within the Schengen bubble, will the traveler go to a self-service kiosk from Germany, taking the train to France with the US passport on their 90th day and the software will recognize that you are US citizen eligible to take advantage of the bilateral and that goes for New Zealand and Canadians to. Because I am like if your nation signs out with a bilateral agreement with the European nations, then as a traveler, you should have to write to exercise that advantage if you want to stay longer within the Shingen zone
So actually, it is just a short stay visa in electronic form. Just wondering why the emphasis on fingerprints when in today's world most evidence is collected from photos, videos, and financial documents, so to control a few, everyone must suffer being treated like they are criminals..
That's pretty similar to the procedure for European tourists entering the U.S. I was one of them three times and I never thought I was treated like a criminal when going thru the U.S. border checks.
Merci beaucoup! Thank you for producing all your very valuable and helpful content. I am trying to understand the visa-free 90-day rule. As a US citizen I am allowed to enter the Schengen area visa-free for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Does this mean, for example, I can stay in France for 90 days, then go to a non-Schengen country (like Norway) for another 90 days (=180 days), and come back to France for 90 days?
Norway is a Schengen country. If you have stayed in the Schengen area for 90 days, leave the area and come back to the area after 180days, your counter would have been reset to 0.

Hi Kirsten, Thank you for raising that and sorry for the mistake. 🤦🏼♀️ I should have said "four non-EU countries: Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland". These countries are not part of the EU but are part of Schengen. Also, Ireland and Cyprus are part of the EU but not part of Schengen as you can see on the map shown on the video. So, this can get a bit confusing sometimes. @ahoj7720 was correct in saying that you can spend 90 days in France (or any other Schengen countries), go to a non-Schengen country and then come back into the Schengen area at the end of the 180 periods. You will find a Schengen calculator online that can help you with your travel plans.
Why is everybody being treated like a real criminal? Most people (99%)are decent and not criminals. This system is offensive and possibly dangerous due to the high level activities of real criminals. It is the criminals who will evade things as usual. and who will cause problems. I wish normal people could just have their privacy respected.
You seam to be an US citizen. Do you know that to enter the US as legal tourist from outside the US you have to follow nearly the same process and it's more intrusive ?

Well done and thank you for clarifying.....
Apparently the latest news is that EES has again been pushed back until November 10th. That’s according to The Independent newspaper.
Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Norway, and Iceland are Schengen countries, you meant non EU countries
Correct! I've pinned a comment to correct that regretful error...

PLEASE, WHAT WILL THEN BE THE PROCESS AT THE POINT OF EXIT FROM THE SCHENGEN AREA?
Hi! is this also going to be implemented for land and ferry borders or only air borders?

Free movement doesn't exist. Liberty and privacy doesn't exist. Our movements are constantly monitored both online and in the physical world.
because it's a low-hanging fruit to collect data
In many EU countries our fingers print are taken to apply to our national ID, never feel like a criminal !
That was the old way to be sure who is who.

You do not disclose that you must provide identity to get results from your quiz. Shame!
You are correct to say that I should mention it. I will make sure to mention it coming forward. Have a friendly and cordial day
