On March 23, 2016, Regulation 2016/399 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 repealing anteriorly (Regulation 562/2006) was published in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) , which establishes a Code of EU rules for crossing borders, which is known as the Schegen Code of Borders.

The Rules were enforced on April 12 this year in order to respond to the massive displacement of refugees from Arab countries, mainly Syria, a cross-border regulation between states of the European Union and control of external borders still needed EU. While, Regulation assumes that migration and border crossing itself is not a threat to public order or internal security.

Therefore, the regulation applies to any person crossing the border, whether they are inside or outside of the Member States, not thus affecting the rights of free movement under EU law, or the rights of refugees or asylum protection international, especially with regard to non-refoulement, nor to bilateral agreement in force nor the special regime applied in the cities of Melilla and Ceuta.

Since the reintroduction of border controls an exceptional situation, indicating the procedure and setting the restoration will fit only as a last resort, strictly limited in scope and duration, having to be based on specific objective criteria, weighted necessity and proportionality.
