European Union: Students and Researchers Directive Implemented in All EU Member States
July 26, 2022
Following Greece’s recent ministerial decree implementing the EU Students and Researchers Directive, all EU Member States have now implemented the Directive (except Ireland and Denmark, which opted out). This Directive aims to facilitate intra-EU mobility for researchers and students by reducing the administrative burden related to mobility in the EU Member States. The Directive sets up a specific intra-EU mobility scheme whereby a third-country national who is authorized to conduct research or studies through an organization in one EU Member State is entitled to enter, stay and carry out part of the research activity or studies in one or several other EU Member States.
