Decision on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction

This procedure allows Croatia, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Romania to accept San Marino's accession to the 1980 Hague Convention. This international agreement provides a legal framework to ensure the prompt return of children who have been wrongfully removed from their country of habitual residence.

This decision affects legal proceedings involving international child abduction. It ensures that citizens of the involved EU member states and San Marino have access to standardized judicial cooperation to protect children's rights and resolve custody disputes.
