Abstract :
This paper discusses the requirements, national regulations, and application requirements to introduction of a new biometric passport in the European Union (EU), especially in the Republic of Poland. The biometric passport is sometimes called e-passport. The biometric systems depend highly on the existing hardware biometrical technologies and its software components. Some important national solutions will be also described in this article.
