European Union Immigration Law

European Union immigration law governs the movement and residence of non-EU nationals within member states. It establishes common rules for visas, residence permits, asylum procedures, and work authorizations to facilitate free movement while maintaining security and sovereignty. The law aims to balance economic needs, humanitarian commitments, and national interests, ensuring fair treatment and legal clarity for immigrants. It also coordinates cooperation among EU countries to manage migration flows and address challenges like integration and border control, creating a unified framework that respects individual rights while safeguarding member states’ interests.
