Based on application, the market is segmented into airports, seaports, and land ports. The land ports segment is expected to be the fastest growing segment with over CAGR of 12.5% between 2023 to 2032.

• Land ports are experiencing growth due to the increasing volume of cross-border trade and passenger traffic. These factors demand more efficient border control processes. Land ports, which connect neighboring countries and handle substantial traffic, are pivotal locations for implementing automated border control systems to expedite these processes.
   
• Heightened security concerns require stricter border control measures. ABC systems enhance security by employing advanced biometric technologies, such as facial recognition and fingerprint scanning, thereby ensuring the accurate identification of travelers and preventing unauthorized access.
   
• The growing use of automated border control systems in land ports is being driven by the need for improved efficiency, enhanced security, public health considerations, and infrastructure upgrades, making them a crucial application area in the broader ABC market.
  
   

Based on border crossing procedure, the market is segmented into one-step process, integrated two-step process, and segregated two-step process. The integrated two-step process segment is dominating the market with share of over 50% from 2023 to 2032.
 

• The integrated two-step process enhances border security while expediting the processing of travelers. This two-step approach typically involves an initial self-service kiosk check, followed by a biometric authentication step at a gate or barrier, ensuring robust identity verification.
   
• The integrated two-step process improves passenger flow management, particularly in high-traffic areas such as airports and land ports. By splitting the process into two steps, it prevents bottlenecks at traditional checkpoints, thereby reducing wait times and congestion.
   
• Governments and border control agencies are recognizing the efficiency gains and cost savings associated with this approach. It reduces the need for extensive manual checks, leading to resource optimization.
   
• With the continuous advancements in biometric technologies, the integrated two-step process will become more accurate & reliable, increasing its appeal across border control applications.
   

Europe dominated the automated border control market in 2022, accounting for a significant share of over 30%. Europe is experiencing growth in the automated border control (ABC) market due to increasing international travel & trade activities, which have driven the demand for efficient border control solutions. European governments have been investing in modernizing border infrastructure, making it conducive for the deployment of automated border control systems. The stringent security requirements in Europe have also led to the adoption of advanced biometric technologies, making ABC systems a crucial component of border security. Furthermore, the European Union's push for standardized travel document verification and cross-border data sharing has propelled the growth of ABC systems in the region.
