Polish passports secured by Neurotechnology
New Polish passports will include biometric fingerprint information using Neurotechnology’s Verifinger solution.
The software, which was selected on behalf of the Polish Government by Polish Security Printing Works, will mean that identification will comply with new European Council regulations.
All newly issued passports in Poland will now include a chip on which a biometric fingerprint is saved. A final security check will be done when the user comes to receiving their passport.
