🇬🇧 English

This EU Implementing Decision requires eu-LISA to produce detailed monthly statistics using biometric and travel data from Eurodac, the Visa Information System (VIS), ETIAS and the Entry/Exit System (EES). The statistics track third-country nationals and stateless persons in relation to visa grants/refusals/revocations, residence permits, border crossings, overstays, travel authorisations, and applications for international protection. Data must be disaggregated by Member State, age, sex, nationality, and additional fields such as grounds for refusal or specific border crossing points. The aim is to monitor irregular migration, secondary movements, and support evidence-based policymaking on asylum and border control. Statistics only apply once the relevant systems and the Common Identity Repository (CIR) and Multiple-Identity Detector (MID) are operational.
