Conclusion
The Asylum and Immigration law is really sensitive subject in European Union law and in
Danish National law. The judicial review procedures are seen different from European Court of
Human Rights and the Danish procedure system. Danish asylum law in past decades has found
itself in a dilemma between clearly restrictions tendencies at the domestic policy level and the
official preparedness to uphold the fulfillment of international obligations. Nevertheless, it is

system; however the Lisbon Treaty made a protectionism measures that limits the power of EU
institutions. The EU has the challenge to harmonize Asylum law and policy for having the legal
impact also to the ‘’opting out’’ countries like Denmark. While the present state of affairs can
probably be explained as a result of the combination of long legal traditions and the introduction
of several sources of international law in the domestic legal system, judicial pragmatism and the
specific organizational and procedural set-up of the Danish asylum system, these factors of both a
cultural and rational nature will not necessarily remain as unaffected by European and
international developments.

migration is today firmly established as a part of administrative and regulatory framework of the
EU and there has been a gradual but certain growth of legislative and policy measures in this
field. For an example there is common harmonization regarding the visa procedures, the granting
and withdrawing of asylum and other protection statuses, the administration of family members
and high qualified workers and the return of irregularly staying migrants. Unfortunately, there are
still states where the harmonization of national rules thought EU legislation is partial.
