Public consultation on the EU Blue Card and the European Union’s labour migration policies

The aim of this consultation is to collect opinions on a range of issues related to economic migration with a view to contribute to the elaboration of a new European policy on legal migration and a review of the so-called 'Blue Card' Directive.

This is one of the priorities included in the European Agenda on Migration: this new policy on legal migration should help the European Union address specific skills shortages and become a more attractive destination for talented workers and entrepreneurs who are willing to invest in Europe.

In addition, the specific section on the EU Blue Card intends to gather opinions on how the shortcomings of this scheme can best be addressed, and how it can be made more effective and attractive.

This public consultation forms part of a reflection process to elaborate a new EU policy on legal migration and gives stakeholders the opportunity to present their views on these issues, including on the review of the Blue Card Directive.
