ASPECTS CONCERNING THE TRANSPOSITION OF DIRECTIVE (EU) 2016/801 IN NATIONAL LEGISLATION GOVERNING THE REGIME OF FOREIGNERS ON ROMANIA'S TERRITORY

Summary/Abstract: For most migrants, authorizing entry or stay in a state is only the first step in establishing full residence rights. Access to the labour market, education system, social assistance services, and other social benefits may be a difficult exercise. Thus, recognition of the right to enter or stay is normally necessary to access all social rights.In general, states may differentiate between nationalities when exercising their sovereign right to authorize or refuse access to their territory. In principle, it is not illegal to conclude agreements or to approve national rules by which certain categories of nationalities are granted privileged rights to enter or stay in the territory of those States.Therefore, States may normally introduce differentiated conditions for entry or stay.However, States must take into account the fact that international and European human rights instruments prohibit discrimination, including on the basis of nationality, in the regulated areas concerned.
