Free movement of persons – a relevant topic
The legal concept of the ‘free movement of persons’ is at the heart of the European Union’s internal market law.
Within the European Union (EU), the rules on the free movement of persons make the movement of people with an EU nationality and of certain of their family members comparatively easy. These rules also apply in the European Economic Area. Further, to some extent they have been extended to Switzerland through the Swiss-EU Agreement on the free movement of persons.
