Automated Border Control Market by Border Crossing Procedure, Solution Type, Component, Application

By Border Crossing Procedure

In 2023, the Automated Border Control (ABC) market was led by the Integrated Two-step Process, accounting for 52.6% of the market share due to its robust security, involving separate steps for document authentication and biometric verification. This method is widely favored by border authorities for its high fraud detection capabilities and compliance with strict immigration protocols.

From 2024 to 2032, the One-step Process is projected to register the fastest CAGR, driven by its speed and efficiency. The growing adoption of contactless, AI-powered biometric systems and self-service e-gates is enhancing border clearance, particularly amid rising passenger traffic and demand for seamless travel.

By Solution Type

In 2023, ABC E-Gates led the Automated Border Control market with a 56.6% share, driven by widespread deployment at major international airports and checkpoints, particularly in Europe and North America. Their high efficiency, advanced biometric authentication, and seamless integration with passport control systems make them ideal for handling large passenger volumes while enhancing security and reducing wait times.

ABC Kiosks are expected to register the fastest growth from 2024 to 2032 due to their affordability, ease of installation, and suitability for smaller airports, land crossings, and seaports-particularly in emerging regions adopting contactless, cloud-based border solutions to manage rising cross-border travel.

By Component

In 2023, the hardware segment dominated the Automated Border Control (ABC) market with a 51.2% share, driven by the widespread deployment of biometric scanners, passport readers, facial recognition cameras, and e-gates, especially across airports and land crossings in Europe and North America. These components form the backbone of secure and efficient border infrastructure.

The software segment is expected to grow the fastest From 2024 to 2032,, fueled by advancements in AI-based biometric authentication, cloud security, and real-time analytics, especially in emerging markets adopting smart border solutions.

By Application

Airports accounted for the largest share of the Automated Border Control (ABC) market in 2023 at 68.7%, driven by rising international passenger volumes and the growing need for secure, seamless travel experiences. The adoption of biometric-based e-gates and kiosks has surged, especially post-pandemic, due to the demand for contactless processing.

Land ports are expected to grow fastest From 2024 to 2032, supported by increased cross-border movement and investments in portable ABC kiosks, AI-driven verification, and smart border solutions to enhance land crossing efficiency and security.
