Abstract:
In this article, the author analyzes the fraud and the abuse of the law regarding the free movement of
people as reflected in the jurisprudence of the CJEU. The right to free movement of persons is an essential
element of European citizenship, assuming that EU citizens can move freely between member states to live, work,
study or retire in another state. The essence of the right to free movement is to eliminate discrimination between
workers from different countries and to offer equal opportunities to all citizens of the European Union. Although
this concept has many benefits, it also had a negative impact, as cases of fraud or abuse of rights have been
reported. The author defines the notions of fraud on the law and abuse of law with regard to the free movement
of persons considering the regulations of EU law and the constant jurisprudence of the CJEU. Also, the
solutions pronounced by the CJEU in the case study analyzed with regard to the free movement of persons in
order to establish uniform practices by the member states of the European Union are also taken into account.
