What are e-gates and how do they work?

Passengers can easily pass through the E-gates because they automatically open after submitting an e-passport, and the entire process only takes 30 seconds, according to airport authorities.

Earlier on June 7, 12 e-gates were opened at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka to facilitate faster immigration for inbound and outbound passengers. However, the e-gates were found to be counter productive since immigration is still being done manually after passengers pass through e-gates.
