REGULATION (EU) 2021/1152 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 7 July 2021
amending Regulations (EC) No 767/2008, (EU) 2017/2226, (EU) 2018/1240, (EU) 2018/1860, (EU) 2018/1861 and (EU) 2019/817 as regards the establishment of the conditions for accessing other EU information systems for the purposes of the European Travel Information and Authorisation System
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular points (a), (b) and (d) of Article 77(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (1),
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EU) 2018/1240 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) established the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (‘ETIAS’) for third-country nationals exempt from the requirement to be in possession of a visa when crossing the external borders of the Union. That Regulation laid down the conditions and procedures for issuing or refusing a travel authorisation under ETIAS. |
(2) |
ETIAS enables consideration of whether the presence of those third-country nationals on the territory of the Member States would pose a security, illegal immigration or high epidemic risk. |
(3) |
In order to enable the ETIAS Central System to process application files as referred to in Regulation (EU) 2018/1240, it is necessary to establish interoperability between the ETIAS Information System, on the one hand, and the Entry/Exit System (‘EES’), the Visa Information System (‘VIS’), the Schengen Information System (‘SIS’), Eurodac and the European Criminal Record Information System – Third-Country Nationals (‘ECRIS-TCN’) (‘other EU information systems’), and Europol data as defined in that Regulation (‘Europol data’), on the other hand. |
(4) |
This Regulation, together with Regulations (EU) 2021/1150 (3) and (EU) 2021/1151 (4) of the European Parliament and of the Council, lays down rules on the implementation of the interoperability between the ETIAS Information System, on the one hand, and other EU information systems and Europol data, on the other hand, and the conditions for the consultation of data stored in other EU information systems and Europol data by ETIAS for the purpose of automatically identifying hits. As a result, it is necessary to amend Regulations (EC) No 767/2008 (5), (EU) 2017/2226 (6), (EU) 2018/1240, (EU) 2018/1860 (7), (EU) 2018/1861 (8) and (EU) 2019/817 (9) of the European Parliament and of the Council in order to connect the ETIAS Central System to other EU information systems and to Europol data and to specify the data that will be sent between those EU information systems and Europol data. |
(5) |
The European Search Portal (ESP), established by Regulation (EU) 2019/817 and Regulation (EU) 2019/818 of the European Parliament and of the Council (10), will enable the data stored in ETIAS and the data stored in the other EU information systems concerned to be queried in parallel. |
(6) |
Technical arrangements should be established to enable ETIAS to regularly and automatically verify in other EU information systems whether the conditions for the retention of application files, as laid down in Regulation (EU) 2018/1240, are still fulfilled. |
(7) |
It is necessary, for the purposes of ensuring the full attainment of the objectives of ETIAS, as well as to further the objectives of SIS, set out in Regulation (EU) 2018/1860, to include in the scope of the automated verifications a new alert category introduced by that Regulation, namely the alert on third-country... |
