3.During a period of 90 days after the end of the progressive start of operations of the EES, Member States may partially suspend the operations of the EES as referred to in paragraph 1, second subparagraph, at a certain border crossing point for a maximum of 6 hours in exceptional circumstances that lead to traffic of such intensity that the waiting time at a border crossing point becomes excessive. During such a partial suspension, Member States shall be exempt from their obligation set out in Article 21(1) of Regulation (EU) 2017/2226 as regards the registration of biometric data. Member States shall promptly, and in any event no later than 6 hours from the start of the partial suspension, notify the Commission and eu-LISA of the reason for the suspension and of its expected or actual duration.
