It's not just the United States where high tech passports are making the news.

Remember that I noted a while back that objections had been raised to the plan to implement RFID passports in Norway. Well, despite the objections it looks like RFID passports in Norway are a fait accompli.

Anders Jacobsen from RFIDBuzz.com notes that "a batch of just below 30,000 unencrypted, RFID-enabled passports are being printed thoughout October" in Norway.

The new passports currently contain a description of facial features, but by 2007 will include fingerprints, as required by the european unionlinks.

RFIDBuzz has the story translated from Norwegian.
