Beginning Dec. 17, Australia will require visa applicants in Cambodia to provide biometrics along with their applications.
Cambodians wishing to travel to Australia will need to submit their
visa application in person at the Australian Embassy in Phnom Penh and
provide two forms of biometrics: a facial image and a 10-digit
fingerprint scan. These biometrics will be captured with a digital
camera and a digital finger scanner. The images and scans will be stored
in secure departmental databases accessible only by authorized
officers.
Australia has added biometric identification
to better protect clients from identity fraud, make travel to Australia
safer, strengthen its border security and improve national security.
Australia plans to implement this system in other countries as well.
