On the morning of April 19, before attending the groundbreaking and inauguration ceremony of key national projects and major projects commemorating the 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South, at Tan Son Nhat T3 terminal, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and delegates attended the ceremony to announce the pilot implementation of solutions for applying electronic identification, authentication and biometric recognition to serve check-in procedures.
Also attending were comrade Nguyen Van Nen, Politburo member, Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee, leaders of ministries, branches and localities.
The solution for applying electronic identification, authentication and biometric recognition to serve boarding procedures is chaired by units of the Ministry of Public Security, in coordination with other units.
Accordingly, the "Aviation Service" feature integrated on the VNeID application allows users with a level 2 electronic identification account to perform online, quickly and safely the operations of buying tickets, checking in, going through security control and boarding gates in a contactless manner, just by taking a photo of their face.
Full-process biometric authentication helps shorten waiting times, especially during peak holiday seasons, thereby improving passenger experience.
Previously, identification document authentication was done manually, which was time-consuming and prone to congestion. With biometric identification technology (eKYC) integrated into VNeID, passengers can travel throughout the journey without having to present documents, thanks to the system automatically comparing the customer's face with data from the national database. This process strictly complies with regulations on personal data protection.
Speaking at the ceremony, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh stated that we are actively implementing Resolution 57 of the Politburo on breakthroughs in science and technology development, innovation, digital transformation and Resolution 59 of the Politburo on international integration in the new situation with the spirit of catching up, advancing together, surpassing and leading, contributing to the implementation of the two 100-year development goals, in which science and technology, innovation, and digital transformation are identified as important driving forces in the development process.
Affirming that our Party has no other goal than to maintain the country's independence, sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity, and bring an increasingly prosperous and happy life to the people, the Prime Minister emphasized the goal of stability for development, with development comes stability, rapid, sustainable, comprehensive, and inclusive development, in which by 2025 we strive for GDP growth of 8% or more and reach double digits in the coming years.
The Prime Minister acknowledged and commended the proactive, creative and highly responsible spirit of Ho Chi Minh City, the Ministry of National Defense, Vietnam Airports Corporation, Vietnam Airlines, Vietjet Air, agencies and units in implementing the construction of a spacious, modern and smart Tan Son Nhat T3 terminal in a shortened time; and thanked the people for giving up their land to build the road to T3 terminal.
The Prime Minister also acknowledged and commended the agencies that have piloted the application of electronic identification, authentication and biometric identification solutions for check-in procedures, which shows the effectiveness of digital transformation, which is very convenient for people, reduces direct contact, reduces costs, hassles, reduces intermediaries, and limits negativity in carrying out procedures.
The Prime Minister assigned the Ministry of Public Security and relevant units to try to immediately fix any problems that may arise during operation; at the same time, promptly replicate and deploy this solution at other airports and at wharves, bus stations, and ship terminals, etc.
The Prime Minister also hopes that people will continue to actively participate in and promote the country's digital transformation process, building a digital government, digital society, digital citizens, and developing a digital economy.
