 How To Use E-gate

  1. After successful enrollment, you will be able to use E-Gate by placing required ROC (Taiwan) Resident Certificate (IC card) onto the document reader at the entrance of an E-Gate.
  2. The entrance of the E-Gate is installed with a document reader. You need only place the required IC card or travel document onto the document reader and push it inward to the upper edge to start the reading process.
  3. When the reading process has finished, you will be able to enter the E-gate to verify your facial image. If you fail facial verification, you can still use your fingerprint to pass verification and clear immigration.
