Global E-passport market was valued at USD 11,270 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 17,450 million by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1% during the forecast period.

According to new market analysis, the global E-passport market was valued at USD 11,270 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 17,450 million by 2032, growing at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.1% during the forecast period (2025–2032). This growth is driven by increasing global security concerns, digital transformation initiatives in government services, and widespread adoption of biometric authentication technologies.

What is an E-passport?

An E-passport (electronic passport) is a biometric travel document embedded with an electronic microprocessor chip that stores the holder's personal information and biometric data such as facial recognition, fingerprints, and iris scans. These advanced passports comply with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards and incorporate security features like RFID chips, digital signatures, and encrypted data to prevent identity fraud.

Key Market Drivers

  1. Enhanced Border Security Requirements

The rising threat of identity fraud and cross-border crimes has accelerated E-passport adoption globally. Governments are deploying biometric authentication systems that verify traveler identities in seconds, reducing human error at immigration checkpoints. Following ICAO's Document 9303 standards, over 150 countries have now implemented E-passports as part of their national security infrastructure.

  1. Tourism Recovery and Contactless Travel

Post-pandemic travel resurgence has increased demand for frictionless border crossings. Airports worldwide are implementing automated E-gates that process E-passport holders 80% faster than manual checks – Dubai's Smart Tunnel processes passengers in just 15 seconds. Countries recognize that streamlined immigration processes enhance tourism competitiveness and economic recovery.

Market Challenges

Despite the advantages, deployment challenges persist. The specialized semiconductor chips used in E-passports face 42-week lead times due to concentrated manufacturing. Developing nations struggle with implementation costs exceeding $250 million for full-system overhauls. Privacy concerns also remain, with 32% of citizens in developed markets expressing reservations about biometric data collection.

Growth Opportunities

The African Union's Agenda 2063 identifies biometric travel documents as key infrastructure for continental integration, representing a potential 1.4 billion document market. Strategic partnerships between governments and technology providers are lowering adoption barriers through innovative financing models and localized production solutions.
