Regulation 2016/1191 considerably simplifies the circulation of public documents in order to favour free movement, yet enjoys little attention. The project analyses the Regulation in the context of national civil status systems and of Charter rights and principles. It then transfers research knowledge to practitioners thereby impacting on practices in EU countries and beyond. The partnership is supported by a consortium of academic institutions and associations of registrars. The project aims to better understand how the Regulation is currently implemented within specific national pratices, improve knowledge of the links to fundamental rights and freedom of movement, ensure a sound implementation also in regard to “hard cases”, and finally to raise awareness among registrars and legal practitioners.
