Welcome to the European Judicial Network in civil
and commercial matters
Please note that some
information on this website has not been updated.
The whole content of
the website is in the process of being revised prior to the forthcoming
migration into the European
e-Justice Portal.
This website is managed by the European Commission and will be regularly updated in conjunction with the Member States of the European Union. It contains a large quantity of information about the Member States, Community law, European law and various aspects of civil and commercial law.
For each of these topics, listed on the left of each page, you can find the following information:
- Clicking on the topic takes you to the general information page for that topic.
- Clicking on the European flag takes you to a Community law page, setting out in detail everything that the Union has achieved or planned in this area.
- Clicking on the world map takes you to an International law page, setting out in detail everything that international organisations have achieved or planned in this area.
- Clicking on the flags of the Member States takes you to the national pages. There is one page for each Member State except Denmark. There you will find specific information about the national legal systems.
You can also consult the
European Judicial Atlas, which provides a user-friendly access to information relevant for judicial cooperation in civil matters.
