Fingerprinting has been around for as long as Singapore has been using automated exit gates - you enroll your bios at a staffed lane on the way in and then use the auto gates on the way out - which I want to say is at least 10ish years. They’re moving everything to facial recognition and iris scan now.
This is tangential to the topic of immigration clearance but my Singapore ID literally has my thumbprint printed on it, which I’ve always found hilarious.

Maybe the biometrics on my passport were sufficient already? NZ tends to be an early adopter of such things, as we make a great place to trial new tech, small market unafraid of new shiny.
