The mobile route scans your passport chip, captures a biometric photo and takes Apple Pay or Google Pay at checkout. Most people finish in under five minutes on a modern phone. This guide walks through every screen of the 2026 flow, the hardware you need, and the security features that protect your data. Grab your phone and passport. Let’s begin.<\/p>\n\n

Any iPhone from XS upwards works, as does any Android phone with NFC and a camera above 8 MP. No NFC? Older handsets can still apply through the web form. The app recognises passport chips from 90+ countries instantly. Keep the phone charged for the full five-minute flow. For timing, see our guide on ETIAS-\u10d8\u10e1 \u10d3\u10d0\u10db\u10e3\u10e8\u10d0\u10d5\u10d4\u10d1\u10d8\u10e1 \u10d3\u10e0\u10dd<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the first screen, hold the passport against the phone’s NFC area for 3\u20135 seconds. The app reads the chip’s Machine-Readable Zone (MRZ) and pulls every field automatically. That kills the manual typos that plague desktop applications. See name correction for typo avoidance, and our guide on \u10e3\u10d0\u10e0\u10e7\u10dd\u10e4\u10d0 \u10d3\u10d0 \u10d2\u10d0\u10e1\u10d0\u10e9\u10d8\u10d5\u10e0\u10d4\u10d1\u10d0<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, the app walks you through a biometric selfie with face-liveness checks. It compares that photo against the passport chip image to confirm you are you. Live feedback keeps rejection rates under 2%. The whole step adds just 30 seconds.

The final screen offers Apple Pay, Google Pay, Visa and Mastercard. Neobank cards from Revolut and Wise work too. Checkout is Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) compliant under PSD2, so expect a biometric confirmation on the phone.

The Commission’s 2026-2028 ETIAS digital roadmap adds multi-factor authentication with hardware security keys, family-bundle applications, automated renewal reminders 90 days before expiry, and deeper European Digital Identity Wallet integration. Apple ID and Google ID single sign-on arrives in 2027. Each change trims application friction, and frequent travellers gain the most. Eye-tracking and other accessibility upgrades are due in 2028. All of it keeps the ETIAS app the default way to manage European travel authorization well into the 2030s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
