You need to have travelled to the USA after 2008. Unrelated to the passport being an e-passport. The passport reader only reads the MRZ at present, but will use the e chip for some new upcoming features.

The industry is questioning GE and many airports and operators want a kiosk that does both. APC has been far more successful than GE and rolled out pretty quickly.
