Summary/Abstract: One of the objectives of the functioning of the EU is the unification of the rules of court procedure, that is, international legal assistance, which, among other things, refers to the cross-border exchange of documents and data concerning court and other cases. In the 1992 Treaty establishing the EU, this issue was more closely defined, and in the 1997 Treaty of Amsterdam, judicial cooperation was included within the First Pillar of the EU, which enabled the adoption of acts that have a supranational character in this area. Given that this is a very important component of the functioning of court proceedings with an element abroad, there was a need to define instruments that will contribute to the efficient exchange of documentary and informational data. One of those instruments is digitization, which contributed to the development of the e-justice system and later to the establishment and development of the e-CODEX system. Regulation 2022/850 of the European Parliament and of the Council of May 30, 2022, on a computerised system for the cross-border electronic exchange of data in the area of judicial cooperation in civil and criminal matters, ensures effective access to justice by citizens and legal entities. The regulation was adopted to improve judicial cooperation in civil, commercial, and criminal matters between member states. This Regulation established the eCODEX system, which defines the electronic exchange of data, which includes any content that can be transmitted in electronic form. In the paper, the author pays special attention to the analysis of the e-CODEX system and e-justice and their importance for the Republic of Serbia.
