Abstract
A gate apparatus includes a determination unit, a fingerprint authentication unit, and a gate control unit. The determination unit determines a nationality of an examination target user. The fingerprint authentication unit obtains a fingerprint of the examination target user if the nationality of the examination target user is a first country and performs fingerprint authentication using the obtained fingerprint. The gate control unit controls a gate to allow the examination target user of the first nationality to pass through if the fingerprint authentication of the examination target user is successful.
