reciprocal border measures

Reciprocal border measures are policies where countries respond to each other’s actions at borders to maintain fairness and protect their interests. For example, if one country tightens entry rules, the other might do the same in response. These measures aim to balance security, health, or economic concerns without escalating restrictions unnecessarily. They are a way for countries to ensure that their border policies are consistent and that any restrictions are matched or mirrored by the other country, promoting fairness and mutual cooperation while managing international movement.
