Summary/Abstract: This article aims to analyze the advantages of the latest evidence-gathering instrument within the European Union - the European Investigation Order (EIO), introduced by Directive 2014/41/EU of the European Parliament and of the. Council of 3 April 2014 regarding the European Investigation Order in criminal matters.It is essential for the effective criminal law cooperation between EU Member States to apply rational approaches to investigate crimes that ensure the speed, objectivity, comprehensiveness and legality of criminal proceedings. As an instrument based on the principle of mutual recognition of judgments, the EIO significantly simplifies and speeds up the process of collecting valid evidence across the EU, especially in the investigation of cross-border crime.
