Border Force staff are going on strike for eight days over Christmas at Heathrow, Gatwick and several other airports, the PCS union has announced.
About 75% of passport control staff are PCS members - and Heathrow has warned checks may take longer on strike days.
Thousands of other civil servants - including driving test examiners - will also be taking industrial action.
PCS boss Mark Serwotka said the strikes would "escalate" unless the government "put money on the table now".
Strikes at the Department for Work and Pensions and the Highways Agency have already been announced.
