investigación innovación I+D+i desarrollo tecnológico europeo. HORIZON Research and Innovation Actions Expected Outcome: Project results are expected to contribute to some or all of the following expected outcomes: Development, testing and integration of issuance, validation and sharing capabilities for possible future types (beyond Type 1) of Digital Travel Credentials (DTC); Integration of innovative, on-the-move, biometrics and remote biometric acquisition modalities to support the use of DTCs; Improved secure connectivity and interoperability for future DTCs; Improved capability of issuance of emergency travel documents and/or emergency DTCs. Scope: Issuance, verification and management of digital travel credentials (DTCs) is relevant for border management, immigration and visa management. Furthermore, it could also be relevant to combat illicit activities such as terrorism, crime or frauds. This topic aims at supporting research and innovation that explore, develop and test enhanced capabilities for securely issuing, verify and manage (including sharing) possible future types of digital travel credentials (DTCs) for travel across the external borders of the EU. The proposed solutions must be compatible with current, planned or foreseeable EU DTCs formats, and with applicable In
