EU Asylum Reform Takes Effect With Border Screening and Biometric Checks
The pact adds mandatory screening, biometric registration and faster asylum decisions as EU states prepare to share responsibility for at least 30,000 people a year.
- The European Union has introduced the European Migration and Asylum Pact to manage irregular migration and asylum seekers across its 27 member states, aiming to replace the previous system.
- Under the new pact, migrants will undergo screening at EU borders for up to seven days, with faster asylum procedures and limited appeal opportunities for rejected cases.
- The pact proposes speeding up the return of rejected asylum seekers and establishing a solidarity mechanism where member states share responsibility by accepting asylum seekers or providing financial support.
- Some member states, including Poland and Hungary, oppose the measures, and human rights groups criticize the pact for rushing asylum assessments and risking the rights of asylum seekers.
