Immigration in relation to the Schengen Agreement – Dublin 2 and Asylum
The Schengen Agreement is the agreement signed on 14 June 1985 in the town of Schengen, Luxembourg, between five member states of the European Communities (EC) (Belgium, Germany, France, Luxembourg and the Netherlands) and aimed at the progressive abolition of checks at their common borders, the establishment of free movement for all persons who are nationals of the states that signed the Agreement, as well as police and judicial cooperation.
