FRONTEX Regulation

The FRONTEX Regulation establishes the legal framework for the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex), responsible for helping EU countries manage their external borders. It sets out how Frontex coordinates border security efforts, deploys personnel and resources, and supports member states in preventing illegal entry and cross-border threats. The regulation aims to enhance border management, ensure safe and lawful migration, and protect fundamental rights, all while fostering cooperation among EU countries. It provides clear rules for Frontex’s operations, ensuring transparency, accountability, and effective border control across the European Union.
