Right of entry and residence of third country nationals in Croatia in the context of accession to the European Union
Iris Goldner Lang
Abstract
One of the areas of harmonisation of the legal system of the Republic of Croatia with the acquis are by all means the issues of entry and residence of third country nationals in the territory of the Republic of Croatia. This article deals with this problem from the perspective of its legal, political and practical implications without analysing the technical process of harmonisation itself. Special attention is paid to the challenges and problems which occur in the course of harmonisation of this area with the acquis in the context of migration policy and rights of third country nationals in the European Union. Besides the introductory part and conclusion, the article includes six topics. The first part deals with the problem of temporary residence and the second part with the problem of permanent residence in general. Then follows the analysis of entry and residence of third country nationals for special purposes: employment and self-employment, as well as education. The third part analyses the issue of family reunification, while the final chapter deals with the issues connected with non-discrimination and integration of the third country nationals who lawfully reside in the territory of the Republic of Croatia.
