COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2025/2055
of 2 October 2025
laying down rules for the application of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351 of the European Parliament and of the Council, as regards asylum and migration management and repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2024/1351 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 May 2024 on Asylum and Migration Management, amending Regulations (EU) 2021/1147 and (EU) 2021/1060 and repealing Regulation (EU) No 604/2013 (1), and in particular Articles 23(7), Article 25(7), Article 34(4), Article 39(3), Article 40(4) and (8), Article 41(5), Article 46(1) and (4), Article 48(4), Article 50(1) and (5), Article 52(4), Article 64(3) and Article 67(14) thereof,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2024/1358 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 May 2024 on the establishment of ‘Eurodac’ for the comparison of biometric data in order to effectively apply Regulations (EU) 2024/1351 and (EU) 2024/1350 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Directive 2001/55/EC and to identify illegally staying third-country nationals and stateless persons and on requests for the comparison with Eurodac data by Member States’ law enforcement authorities and Europol for law enforcement purposes, amending Regulations (EU) 2018/1240 and (EU) 2019/818 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Regulation (EU) No 603/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), and in particular Article 42(3) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
A number of uniform methods need to be established for the effective application of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351. Those methods have to be clearly defined so as to facilitate the cooperation and swift exchange of information between the competent authorities of the Member States as regards the preparation and submission of information or documents concerning take charge requests, take back notifications, transmission of information for the purposes of relocation, requests for information and for consultation and exchange of information for the purposes of transfers. The uniform methods should cover all phases of those procedures. |
|
(2) |
Technical adaptations are necessary in order to respond to the evolution of the standards applicable and the practical arrangements for using the secure electronic communication channels set up by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003 (3) (DubliNet) to facilitate the implementation of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351. |
|
(3) |
In order to allow for the effective operational management of DubliNet, the European Union Agency for the Operational Management of Large-Scale IT Systems in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (eu-LISA) should take into account the state-of-the-art technology when developing and updating the standard forms to be used for the exchange of information between the Member States. |
|
(4) |
In order to ensure swift access to the asylum procedure and the good cooperation between national authorities, the swift exchange of all necessary information concerning the procedures for take charge should take place within short deadlines to allow a quick determination of the Member State responsible, while ensuring a proper consideration of the complexity and sensitivity of each case, in particular those concerning minors and dependent persons, as well as the possible reactions of the Member States concerned. |
|
(5) |
In order to ensure that family unity is effectively maintained and the swift processing of family cases, including their prioritisation, take charge requests, take back notifications, submission of information on relocation and transfer concerning family members should be submitted in the same standard form. This should not affect the obligation of the Member States to properly assess each individual case, in particular by taking into account the best interests of the child or relevant circumstances related to the individual situation of the family member concerned. |
|
(6) |
In order to ensure swift access to the asylum procedure, the efficiency of the procedures established in Regulation (EU) 2024/1351 and the good cooperation between the competent authorities of the Member States, the exchange of information concerning the procedures for take back should take place within short deadlines, while ensuring a proper consideration of each case, as well as the possible reactions of the Member States concerned. The uniform methods should also allow a smooth transition between the procedure concerning take back requests under Regulation (EU) 604/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4) to the new procedure concerning take back notifications established by Regulation (EU) 2024/1351. |
|
(7) |
Regulation (EU) 2024/1351 established relocation as a type of solidarity measure. Uniform methods for the preparation and submission of information and documents for the purpose of relocation should be therefore established. |
|
(8) |
With the aim of ensuring the quick implementation of relocations, the exchange of the relevant information and documents should take place within short deadlines, while ensuring the proper consideration of each case. |
|
(9) |
In order to facilitate the cooperation between the Member States and support the compliance with their obligations within the short deadlines provided for in Article 67 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351, Member States concerned should exchange adequate and relevant information, limited to what is necessary, about the person subject to relocation, in particular on the nature and scope of the checks performed to verify that the person concerned does not pose a threat to the internal security. Given the importance of preventing threats to internal security, it is necessary to ensure swift update of the information transmitted where new facts and circumstances or information become available at a later stage and could indicate any change concerning the assessment of the threat to the internal security. |
|
(10) |
In order to ensure the operation of the financial contributions, considering the Member States’s mandatory fair share calculated pursuant to Article 66 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351, it is necessary to establish methods for the calculation of the financial contributions, including any relevant amounts and deductions affecting their value, and for the exchange of information needed for the calculation and allocation of these amounts to the benefitting Member States. |
|
(11) |
To ensure the swift access to the asylum procedure, the efficiency of the procedures established in Regulation (EU) 2024/1351 and the good cooperation between the competent authorities of the Member States, it is necessary that Member States inform other Member States and the European Union Agency for Asylum of the locations where transfers may take place as well as of the authorities before which the persons concerned are to appear upon arrival, including of the locations to which transfers are to be carried out and the authorities competent to receive transfers in cases in which the receiving Member State remains inactive. When determining these locations, due account should be taken of the geographical constraints and modes of transport available towards the transferring Member States. |
|
(12) |
With a view to facilitating the identification and entry of the persons to be transferred upon their arrival to the Member State responsible, in particular in case of voluntary transfers and supervised transfers in situations in which the person to be transferred will not be received by the authorities of the receiving Member State at the point of disembarkation upon arrival as well as when the person concerned is not in a possession of a travel document, the design of the laissez-passer should be established. |
|
(13) |
The information needed and the time required for the preparation of the arrival of the person to be transferred by the receiving Member States depend on whether the transfer is carried out on a voluntary basis, by supervised departure or under escort. Taking into consideration the differences between the three types of transfers, and with a view of ensuring the efficient exchange of information between Member States and the swift implementation of transfer decisions, it is necessary to lay down uniform methods for the consultation and exchange of information for each type of transfer, in particular concerning the time limits, covering also situations where a Member State remains inactive. |
|
(14) |
The deadlines for submitting the standard form for transfers should allow sufficient time for the receiving Member State to receive persons with special needs, unaccompanied minors and persons under escorted transfers who pose a threat to internal security. |
|
(15) |
Where the receiving Member State fails to confirm the reception of the transfer standard form or, where applicable, its availability to receive the transfer, or to propose alternative locations or times for the transfer, the transfer should be implemented to the airports to which transfers are to be carried out in cases in which the receiving Member State remains inactive. The transferring Member State should be able to choose to use this airport also in cases where the alternatives proposed by the receiving Member State are objectively not suitable. |
|
(16) |
The common information material referred to in Regulation (EU) 2024/1351, which is prepared by the European Union Agency for Asylum, should include information regarding the application of Regulation (EU) 2024/1358. |
|
(17) |
This Regulation needs to properly reflect the interaction between the procedures laid down in Regulation (EU) 2024/1351 and the application of Regulation (EU) 2024/1358. |
|
(18) |
Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) is to apply to processing carried out pursuant to this Regulation. |
|
(19) |
In accordance with Article 4 of Protocol No 21 on the position of the United Kingdom and Ireland in respect of the area of freedom, security and justice, annexed to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Ireland has notified, by letter of 14 May 2024, its wish to accept and be bound by Regulation (EU) 2024/1351.

Given that chapters I, II, III, V and VII of this Regulation constitute implementing measures referred to in Article 4 of the Agreement between the European Community and the Kingdom of Denmark on the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in Denmark or any other Member State and ‘Eurodac’ for the comparison of fingerprints for the effective application of the Dublin Convention, Denmark shall notify the Commission of its decision whether or not to implement the content of the implementing measures. Notification shall be given upon receipt of the implementing measures or within 30 days thereafter. |
|
(21) |
As regards Iceland and Norway, Chapters I, II, III, V and VII of this Regulation constitute new measures in a field that is covered by the subject matter of the Annex to the Agreement between the European Community and the Republic of Iceland and the Kingdom of Norway concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Iceland or Norway. |
|
(22) |
As regards Switzerland, Chapters I, II, III, V and VII of this Regulation constitute measures amending or building upon the provisions of Article 1 of the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Switzerland. |
|
(23) |
As regards Liechtenstein, Chapters I, II, III, V and VII of this Regulation constitute measures amending or building upon the provisions of Article 1 of the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Switzerland to which Article 3 of the Protocol between the European Community, the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein on the accession of the Principality of Liechtenstein to the Agreement between the European Community and the Swiss Confederation concerning the criteria and mechanisms for establishing the State responsible for examining a request for asylum lodged in a Member State or in Switzerland refers. |
|
(24) |
Under Regulation (EU) 2024/1351, Regulation (EU) No 1560/2003 is to remain in force unless and until it is amended by implementing acts adopted pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2024/1351. In the interest of legal certainty, Regulation (EC) No 1560/2003 should be repealed. |
|
(25) |
The European Data Protection Supervisor was consulted in accordance with Article 42(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 of the European Parliament and of the Council (7) and delivered its opinion on 2 September 2025 |
|
(26) |

The request shall include full and detailed reasons, based on all circumstances of the case and include the following:
|
(a) |
a copy of all the proof and circumstantial evidence showing that the requested Member State is responsible for examining the application for international protection, accompanied, where appropriate, by comments on the circumstances in which it was obtained and the evidentiary value attributed to the circumstantial evidence by the requesting Member State, with reference to the list of proof and circumstantial evidence referred to in Article 40(4) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351, which are set out in Annex I to this Regulation; |

When take charge requests concerning the members of the same family are made simultaneously, they shall be made using the same standard form.
2. Where the request is based on a hit transmitted by Eurodac in accordance with Article 27(4) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1358 following a comparison of the applicant's biometric data with biometric data previously taken in accordance with Article 13 of that Regulation and checked, where applicable, in accordance with Article 38(4) of that Regulation, it shall include the hit result, as well as all data transmitted together with the hit with the exception of biometric data.
3. Where the request is based on a hit transmitted by the Visa Information System (‘VIS’) in accordance with Article 21 or 22j of Regulation (EC) No 767/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (8) following a comparison of the fingerprints of the applicant for international protection with fingerprint data previously taken and sent to the VIS in accordance with Article 9 of that Regulation and checked in accordance with Article 21 of that Regulation, it shall also include the data supplied by the VIS.

Article 8
Acceptance of a take charge request
The acceptance of a take charge request shall be submitted using the same standard form that was used for submitting the request. Where the requested Member State accepts responsibility, the reply shall include, among others, that information specifying the applicable provision of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351, and it shall include practical details and relevant information concerning the transfer.
Article 9
Rejection of a take charge request
1. Where the requested Member State considers that the evidence submitted does not establish its responsibility, the rejection shall be given using the section designated for that purpose in the same standard form that was used for submitting the request.

That option shall be exercised within three weeks following receipt of the rejection. The requested Member State shall endeavour to reply within two weeks. The expiry of the two-week time limit brings to an end the re-examination procedure, whether the requested Member State has, or has not, replied within that period.
Failure by the notified Member State to react within the time limits set out in the first subparagraph shall not be tantamount to confirming the request.
The first subparagraph shall not extend the time limits laid down in Article 40(1) and (7) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351.
Article 10
Dependent persons
1. Where the applicant is present on the territory of a Member State other than the one where the child, sibling or parent on whose assistance the applicant is dependent or who is dependent on the applicant’s assistance is present, the standard form set out in Annex VII shall be used for consultations between the two Member States and for requests for information concerning:

|
(c) |
the capacity of the person concerned to take care of the dependent person; |
|
(d) |
where necessary, the inability to travel for a significant period of time. |
A copy of available documentary evidence substantiating the dependency, in particular medical certificates, and relevant information supplied by the persons concerned, as well as the written confirmation by the applicant or the child, the sibling or parent of their capacity and desire to take care of the dependent person, shall be included in that standard form.
2. The requested Member State shall endeavour to reply within two weeks from the receipt of the request for information. Where compelling evidence indicates that further investigations would lead to more accurate information, the requested Member State shall inform the requesting Member State that two additional weeks are needed.
3. The request for information pursuant to paragraph 1 of this Article shall be carried out ensuring full compliance with the deadlines set out in Article 39(1) and Article 40(1) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351.

The Member State with which an application for international protection was registered by an unaccompanied minor shall, after holding the personal interview pursuant to Article 22 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1351, search for and take into account any information provided by the minor, in particular in the template referred to in paragraph 1 of that Article, or coming from any other credible source familiar with the personal situation or the route followed by the minor or a member of his or her family, sibling or relative.
2. Where the Member State carrying out the process of determining the Member State responsible for examining the application of an unaccompanied minor is in possession of information that makes it possible to start identifying and locating a member of the family, sibling or relative, that Member State shall consult other Member States, as appropriate, and exchange information, relevant for:
|
(a) |
the identification of family members, siblings or relatives of the unaccompanied minor, present on the territory of the Member States; |
|
(b) |
the existence of proven family links; |
|
(c) |
the capacity of a relative to take care of the unaccompanied minor, including where family members, siblings or relatives of the unaccompanied minor stay in more than one Member State. |
3. Where the exchange of information referred to in paragraph 2 indicates that more family members, siblings or relatives are present in another Member State or Member States, the Member State where the unaccompanied minor is present shall cooperate with the relevant Member State or Member States, in order to determine the most appropriate person to whom the minor is to be entrusted, and in particular to establish:
|
(a) |
the strength of the family links between the minor and the different persons identified on the territories of the Member States; |
|
(b) |
the capacity and availability of the persons concerned to take care of the minor; |
|
(c) |
the best interests of the minor in each case. |
4. The standard form set out in Annex VII shall be used for the consultation and, as appropriate, the exchange of information between Member States for the purpose of the identification of family members, siblings or relatives of an unaccompanied minor.
The requested Member State shall endeavour to reply within two weeks from the receipt of the request. Where compelling evidence indicates that further investigations would lead to more relevant information, the requested Member State shall inform the requesting Member State that two additional weeks are needed.
5.

Why am I receiving this brochure? You are receiving this brochure because your biometric data needs to be taken by the authorities. Biometric data means fingerprints and your photograph. This data, together with information on your identity and other relevant information, will be transmitted to the Eurodac database. Your rights during this process and what is expected of you is explained in this brochure. What is Eurodac? Eurodac is a European database that stores and compares information on certain categories of person entering the EU+ countries. These categories are detailed in this brochure. This database is used by 31 EU+ countries who can process your data and retrieve your information. The EU+ countries are listed at the end of this brochure. If you travel to another EU+ country without permission and your data is taken again, all of your data that is stored in Eurodac will be seen by the authorities of that country. In some cases, your data will be updated with new information. What is the aim of Eurodac? Eurodac has five main aims:

Categories of authorities who can access Eurodac data |
Who can see my data? The national asylum authorities in the EU+ country will take your biometric data and transmit it, together with other relevant data, to Eurodac and receive the result of the comparison. The EU Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation and national police may request access to Eurodac for the purpose of preventing, detecting and investigating serious crimes and terrorism. They may search for your data in Eurodac. IMPORTANT ! The authorities in your home country will not be able to access this information. |
||||||||||||
|
Obligations/Consequences of non-compliance |
What happens if I refuse to give my fingerprints? You are obliged by law to provide your biometric data. There are important reasons why your fingerprints are needed. If you have applied for asylum, this is a necessary step in the procedure. Fingerprint data can also help finding family members present in the EU+ countries. If your fingertips are damaged, fingerprints will be taken again in the future. If you damage your fingerprints on purpose, there will be negative consequences. For example if you have made an application for asylum, the procedure may be stopped. If the procedure is stopped in your case, this means you are no longer considered an applicant (asylum seeker). You will lose all rights connected to that status, now and in the future. The authorities of the EU+ countries may use coercion as a last resort to obtain your biometric data. They may also detain you, as a measure of last resort, to determine or verify your identity. You can find more information about the negative consequences of refusing to provide your fingerprints in the section at the end of this brochure titled ‘other useful information’. |
||||||||||||
|
Rights of the data subject |
What are my rights regarding my Eurodac data? Every EU+ country has an authority that controls data use. You have the right to contact the data controller and data protection officer and ask to access your data that is stored in Eurodac. You can request your information to be corrected if you feel it is:
You can find the contact details for the data controller and data protection officer in the section at the end of this brochure titled ‘other useful information’.
