The article analyses the relationship between the migration process and crime, revealing European realities and future prospects. The specific nature of the phenomena under analysis means that the data required for a comprehensive analysis of the problem are not readily available, and the registered statistics do not reflect the real situation. a review of academic sources, statistical data, and empirical research, the paper identifies the factors that shape migration processes and crime. Empirical studies have confirmed the conclusion that many researchers have arrived at, i.e., that economic factors are of particular importance in migration processes. Security and justice are areas where the European Union as a whole can do more to protect its citizens than any country individually. To combat terrorism, organised crime, drug and human trafficking, and irregular migration, the European Union has developed interagency cooperation (police, customs, and judiciary authorities), which is now part of the common rules binding on all Member States. The paper aims to identify the areas of irregular migration facing the most crimes and provide recommendations on managing migration processes to reduce crime in Europe, thus creating a safer criminogenic situation.
