  5. How does it work? • Data is stored within the RFID tag's microchip as an unique serial number (Electronic Product Code). • The RFID tag is stored in the cover page of the passport • the microchip discharges it’s EPC number to the tag’s antenna.

  6. How does it work? • In the moment when the passport goes close to a RFID reader (distance of 10 ft), The tag’s antenna transmits the code to the reader’s antenna. • The reader’s antenna sends the code to the software • The software converts the number into digital data • The software sends the data to a secure world-wide database, and the person who looks at the database make sure that you are a traveler (and not a terrorist, etc.)
