Implementation of Schengen
According the European Commission, Bulgaria has shown a good understanding of the two-stage implementation of the Schengen acquis and its implementing activities accordingly. Bulgaria is taking further steps in aligning with EU practices and issues related to border control and management such as specific activities carried out by the Border Police in respect to combating trans-border crime and the terms and procedure for crossing the state border, as well as the type and scale of mandatory border controls. Upgrading infrastructure and equipment is ongoing with priority being given to borders with Turkey and the Black Sea. Attention is also given to the future external border with Serbia and Montenegro and with FYROM (Former Yugoslavia Republic of Macedonia). Bulgaria has taken measures to start negotiations on border cooperation with all countries on its external borders. Moreover, cooperation between Bulgarian law enforcement bodies at the borders will significantly be strengthened.
