The global e-passport market size is expected to grow from USD 20,917 million in 2020 to USD 97,617 million by 2027, at a CAGR of 27.5% from 2021 to 2027. An E-passport is an electronic passport containing travelers' identity details such as name, passport number, surname, date of birth, and nationality. In addition, an e-passport is created with an electronic microprocessor chip, which contains several biometric information of an applicant, such as photos, fingerprints, and signatures. E-passport offers numerous benefits to end-users, including preventing misuses of passports, digitally storing personal details of travelers, and improving security. In addition, securing accurate identification of passport holders and protecting against identity theft are essential benefits offered by e-passports.

An increase in the number of people traveling to cross-border destinations propels the growth of the global e-passport market. In addition, the rise in advanced verification technology to detect identity frauds and the presence of advanced airport infrastructure among developing nations also boost the global e-passport market. However, the availability of cost-effective e-passport and high implementation costs restrict the growth of the market. On the contrary, the increase in the adoption of wireless communication technology among the travel industry is expected to offer remunerative opportunities to expand the global market during the forecast period.

An increase in investments by governments and private organizations to develop advanced airport infrastructure across developing nations of Asia-Pacific and Middle East Africa countries drives the market's growth. In addition, various countries across the globe are deploying advanced technologies such as biometric passport technology, geographic information system, and facial recognition technology to identify frauds and threats at airports. Furthermore, several airport development companies have been using digital technologies to improve operational performance and efficiency at airports. For instance, TAV Technologies, one of the leading management technology providers to airline industries, have been using IoT technology to collect biometric data of all passengers from simple sensor devices, smartphones, and wearable connected devices. Thus, such developments across developing as well as developed nations drive the growth of the market.

COVID-19 Impact on the Global E-Passport

The e-passport market has witnessed significant growth in the past few years; however, owing to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the market witnessed a sudden decrease in 2020. This is attributed to the implementation of lockdowns by governments in most countries and the rise in restrictions on international traveling. Moreover, the increase in need among traveling industries to detect traveler information immediately, increase in awareness among people to securely store personal information, and rise in use of smartphones among people are some of the essential factors that boost adoption of the e-passport market during the COVID-19 outbreak. As per the AMR analysis, the e-passport market is anticipated to profit by the third quarter of 2022.

In addition, while estimating the market size, AMR has considered the impact of COVID-19 across the globe, and the estimated numbers are entirely dependent on the current ongoing situation of COVID-19 in each country. However, there is still no clarity on the deeper impact that it is having across various businesses, industrial sectors, and organizations, owing to factors such as the continuous increase in the number of COVID-19 cases with different rates and changes in the lockdown period.

Global E-Passport Market Dynamics

Drivers: Rise in advanced verification means to detect identity frauds

Companies manufacturing e-passport have added a range of additional electronic and visual security features to fight identity fraud and increase the security of travelers' personal information, which enhances the market's growth. In addition, the increase in the introduction of microprocessor-based passports and rapid adoption of advanced microprocessor-based passport services across developed nations to increase travelers' convenience drives the market's growth. Furthermore, the integration of advanced technology such as machine learning and artificial intelligence in e-passport has improved the speed of detecting fraudulent cases in travelers' documents, which drives the global e-passport market.

Restraints: High implementation cost

Innovative e-passport technology is manufactured with highly configurable data management tools, facilitating validation, recording, updating, retrieval, certifying, and issuing documents to citizens. This is attributed to an increase in the implementation cost of e-passport technology. In addition, the limited number of e-passport provider companies across Asia-Pacific and the high price of electronic chips and biometric sensors across the region hamper the growth of the market in this region. Furthermore, several e-passport providers have been manufacturing e-passport technology with advanced magnetic tape cards, which increases the overall cost of e-passports, which, in turn, hampers the market's growth.

Opportunities: Increase in development of wireless communication technology

An increase in the integration of wireless technologies such as smart cards in e-passport, which offers airline industries numerous benefits such as improved security of biometric information such as palm scan, iris scan, fingerprints, and digital signature, is expected to enhance the growth of the market in the future. In addition, radio-frequency identification (RFID) reader and radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag use in e-passport technology to automatically track and identify traveler information such as name, date of birth, age, and address provides lucrative opportunities for the market growth. Furthermore, the radio frequency signal is integrated into e-passport technology to securely transfer travel information to airline companies, which propels the development of the e-passport market.
