Summary/Abstract: Schengen space requires the removal of internal border controls of the signatory states and creating a single external frontier where checks should be conducted according to clear rules. It also implies respect for common rules on visas, migration, asylum and measures relating to police cooperation, judicial and customs. Romania's geostrategic position makes our country to manage an important part of the EU's external borders, which involves special measures to ensure a high level of control and border surveillance. This paper aims to present the main coordinates of the process of Romania's accession to the Schengen space and the results of this process.
