Directive on the implementation of Directive 2011/99/EU on the European Protection Order

This report assesses how the European Protection Order (EPO) directive has been put into practice across EU member states. The EPO allows for the protection of individuals in one member state to be recognised and enforced in another, enhancing cross-border safety.

It examines the effectiveness of the EPO system in judicial cooperation, identifying challenges and best practices. The findings aim to improve the application of the order, benefiting victims of crime and ensuring consistent protection throughout the EU.
