Setting up ETIAS and fundamental rights considerations

FRA took part in three meetings on setting up the European Travel Information and Authorisation System, ETIAS. The meetings took place from 1 to 3 October in Warsaw.

There was a methodological workshop on the analytical framework for ETIAS screening rules and annexes, a meeting of members of ETIAS Screening Board, and meeting of the Working Group on ETIAS risk screening operations.

FRA joined as a member of the ETIAS Fundamental Rights Guidance Board.

The Board advises on fundamental right relevant points related to the set-up of the system. It also presented its first annual report covering November 2022 to December 2023.
