228.000 passport issued from 2014 to 2017, has errors that can provide travelers problems.
It writes Frederiksborg Amts Avis.
There are errors in the information about the fingerprints in the passports.
– It is a citizen, as a case to discover the error in the fall of 2017. We are now in dialogue with the police, so that we can clarify whether all the affected citizens must have a passport.
– And we are in dialogue with the supplier of the it system, so as to ensure that no citizens are faced with a ekstraregning, says the director of the Kommunerns Association of Christian Harsløf to the Frederiksborg Amts Avis.
the Fault lies in the information on the fingerprint that is in the passport. Here is the right hand is stored as the left hand and the left as the right.
the System is supplied by the Cube Data and the director, Jonathan Jorgensen, tells to the Frederiksborg Amts Avis, that he does not expect problems and that there are no problems with the citizen’s data.
– It is difficult to imagine that it must provide citizens with big problems.
– It is only the Police who have access to the encryption key, wherein the fault lies, and many of the affected citizens have probably travelled with the passport without problems, he says to the newspaper.
the national Police confirms the error of Frederiksborg County Newspaper and provide to the newspaper, that there is not issue multiple passports with the same error, since the error was discovered in 2017.
