According to Gulf News the link was launched by the UAE’s Minister of Interior Lieutenant General Shaikh Saif Bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Initially only nationals of the UAE, Oman and other GCC nationals will be able to use the system. It is expected that the it will be extended to include expatriots resident in the two countries and tourists when the second phase is implemented. The procedure speeds up the processing of travel papers and is expected to reduce delays at the border crossing.
