Abstract
This article provides an overview of the emergence of the interoperability of the EU system, the main goal of which is to interconnect six EU databases into a single system that will improve the general security situation of the EU and combat illegal migration. The first part of the article describes in detail the legal framework that preceded the establishment of the interoperability of EU information systems and explains the reasons for its establishment. The article describes the purpose of each individual system and their interdependence, interconnectedness and practical operation. Based on this interdependence, the article further describes some scenarios of practical application and possible implications for the work of law enforcement and other agencies in the EU. The authors explain the similarities of PNR system application and interoperability. By analysing the available case law in the application of PNR, the authors analyse the possible judicial consequences of the application of the principle of proportionality in the future practical implementation of interoperability. Additionally, through analyses of future scenarios of practical implementation of interoperability, the article points out possible implementation and legislative shortcomings. The article is based on a comparative, historical method and case analysis.
