Katunayake International Airport in Sri Lanka is preparing to introduce automated border control gates (e-gates) to speed up passenger processing. The new system will allow travelers to scan their passports independently, while advanced technology automatically verifies document authenticity and detects fraudulent or invalid entries.

Authorities say the move will significantly improve airport efficiency, reduce waiting times, and strengthen border security, marking a key step in modernizing Sri Lanka’s aviation facilities.
