The Schengen Information System used in Bulgaria too
Bulgaria is prepared to become a member of the travel free territory of the Schengen agreement as the country has taken all the necessary measures including the application and usage of the Schengen Information System. Thank to this mechanism, the judicial authorities and the national border control of the different countries can collect information on the objects and persons.
Bulgaria hopes to become a member state of the Schengen zone and with that to supply the necessary information to the system through the national networks that are connected to the central system. It is important to mention that the Schengen area is within the institutional and the legal framework of the European Union. Due to that it comes under the judicial and the parliamentary scrutiny, encouraging the free movement of people as well as the parliamentary control.
