This procedure aims to create a unified European Union list of countries considered 'safe' for people seeking international protection. By standardizing which countries are deemed safe, the EU seeks to ensure a more consistent and fair asylum process across all member states.

This will primarily affect asylum seekers and migration authorities. It streamlines the process for granting or withdrawing protection by allowing faster processing for applications coming from countries on the safe list.
