Regulation (EU) 2017/2226 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2017 establishing an Entry/Exit System (EES) to register entry and exit data and refusal of entry data of third-country nationals crossing the external borders of the Member States and determining the conditions for access to the EES for law enforcement purposes, and amending the Convention implementing the Schengen Agreement and Regulations (EC) No 767/2008 and (EU) No 1077/2011 · European Union

(10) The EES should be operated at the external borders of the Member States which apply the Schengen acquis in full. It is desirable that Member States not yet applying the Schengen acquis in full apply it fully by the start of operations of the EES. However, in the event that the lifting of controls at internal borders cannot be achieved by the start of operations of the EES, it is necessary to specify the conditions for the operation of the EES by those Member States which do not apply the Schengen acquis in full and lay down the provisions for the operation and use of the EES at internal borders where controls have not yet been lifted. As regards the conditions for the operation of the EES, the EES should be operated at the external borders of the Member States which do not yet apply the Schengen acquis in full but for which the verification in accordance with the applicable Schengen evaluation procedure has already been successfully completed, to which passive access to the Visa Information System (VIS) established by Council Decision 2004/512/EC Council Decision 2004/512/EC of 8 June 2004 establishing the Visa Information System (VIS) (OJ L 213, 15.6.2004, p. 5). has been granted for the purpose of operating the EES and for which the provisions of the Schengen acquis relating to the Schengen Information System (SIS), established by Regulation (EC) No 1987/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EC) No 1987/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 December 2006 on the establishment, operation and use of the second generation Schengen Information System (SIS II) (OJ L 381, 28.12.2006, p. 4). , have been put into effect in accordance with the relevant Act of Accession. As regards the provisions on the operation and use of the EES by the Member States fulfilling such conditions, the EES should be operated at all internal borders of those Member States where the controls have not yet been lifted. However, specific provisions on the operation and use of the EES at such borders should apply, in order to minimise the impact of the border check procedure at such borders, while not affecting the level of security and the proper functioning of the EES and without prejudice to the other border control obligations under Regulation (EU) 2016/399 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EU) 2016/399 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2016 on a Union Code on the rules governing the movement of persons across borders (Schengen Borders Code) (OJ L 77, 23.3.2016, p. 1). .
