Action brought on 6 January 2015 — European Commission v Republic of Austria
(Case C-1/15)
(2015/C 073/26)
Language of the case: German

Parties


Applicant: European Commission (represented by: F. Erlbacher and A. Aresu, acting as Agents)

Defendant: Republic of Austria

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


declare that, by adopting and maintaining Paragraph 1(2)(1), Paragraph 2(1)(9), Paragraph 10(3)(4), Paragraph 14 in conjunction with Paragraph 14a and Paragraph 14b as well as Paragraph 21(1) and Paragraph 21a of the Bundesgesetz über die Niederlassung und den Aufenthalt in Österreich (Federal Law on establishment and residence in Austria), the Republic of Austria has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 41(1) of the Additional Protocol (1) and Article 13 of Decision No 1/80;










—


order the Republic of Austria to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

Some of the provisions of the Federal Law on establishment and residence in Austria are incompatible with EU law, in so far as they concern Turkish nationals. Those include, in particular:






—


the duty of the applicant to make the initial application to enter Austrian territory to the competent local representing authority abroad and to await the decision abroad;










—


the fixing of a minimum age of 21 years for the application for a right of residence under the title of family reunification;










—


the proof of knowledge of the German language upon submission of the initial application for a residence permit and the introduction of an ‘integration agreement’.




The Republic of Austria’s objection that, by a circular letter of the Bundesministerium für Inneres (Federal Ministry of the Interior), it instructed the establishment and residence authorities to subject applications from Turkish nationals to a case-by-case examination in conformity with EU law cannot remedy the infringement of the obligations under Article 41(1) of the Additional Protocol and Article 13 of Decision No 1/80.
