Frequently Asked Questions > Immigration > Using Iris Recognition for Immigration Clearance   Question: Who are eligible to use iris recognition for immigration clearance? Answer: At this stage, the use of iris recognition for immigration clearance is applicable to Macao residents who are 7 years old or above and are eligible to use the automated passenger clearance service. Passengers aged 18 or above can register their iris biometrics immediately after their fingerprint is verified at the “iris automated channel”. Minors aged 7 to 17 and passengers who fail to register their iris biometrics at the “iris automated channel” may go to the designated locations for manual registration of their iris biometrics.
