Your exact process depends on your itinerary. Separate tickets, checked baggage, Schengen direction and your arrival hall can change what you need to do.

Typical journey flow

  1. 1

    Follow the Transfer / Correspondance signs toward your departure terminal.

  2. 2

    Clear exit passport control (Schengen exit). Non-EU passports: EES registration.

  3. 3

    Complete security screening where required for your gate area.

  4. 4

    Proceed to your gate; duty-free purchases happen after border control.

What can change this

  • Your nationality and visa status can add requirements (see passport control and EES guides).
  • Separate tickets with baggage to reclaim turn this into a landside journey through arrivals.
  • Terminal pair and hall (2E K/L/M) change the walking and shuttle time.
