You get fingerprinted going into Europe too at some airports.

I'd be interested to know which European countries? And does it vary by the nationality of the visitor[1]?

[1] For the USA for example, Canadians visiting for business or tourism (an implied B1 or B2 visa, respectively), are exempt from fingerprinting. Canada is the only exception to the USA's fingerprinting rules.
