Art. 102 Data collection for the purpose of identification and determining age

1When veri­fy­ing entry re­quire­ments and in pro­ced­ures con­cern­ing for­eign na­tion­als, the com­pet­ent au­thor­it­ies may in in­di­vidu­al cases col­lect and re­cord bio­met­ric data per­tain­ing to for­eign na­tion­als for iden­ti­fic­a­tion pur­poses. For spe­cif­ic cat­egor­ies of per­sons, col­lec­tion and re­cord­ing may be car­ried out sys­tem­at­ic­ally.2

1bisIf there are in­dic­a­tions that an al­leged for­eign minor has reached the age of ma­jor­ity, the com­pet­ent au­thor­it­ies may ar­range an ex­pert re­port on that per­son's age.3

2The Fed­er­al Coun­cil shall de­term­ine the cat­egor­ies of per­sons for which data may be re­cor­ded sys­tem­at­ic­ally and which bio­met­ric data shall be col­lec­ted in ac­cord­ance with para­graph 1, and shall reg­u­late ac­cess to this data.4
