The European Union Agency for Asylum (EUAA) has issued a Call for Expressions of Interest (CEI) to establish a list of remunerated external experts. These external experts are envisaged to be deployed to EUAA Asylum Support Teams as part of EUAA’s operations in different EU member States. The CEI includes 19 profiles in the field of asylum and reception and it is open for applications until 28 March 2027.

General description of the procedure

This procedure is based on the provisions of Article 237 of the EU Financial Regulation 1 and Article 93 of the EUAA Financial Regulation2 . This CEI is directed only to natural persons. Any expressions of interest by applicants are to be submitted in accordance with the rules set out in this CEI. Pursuant to the CEI, the Agency envisages to engage external experts to part of Asylum Support Teams. However, the Agency may moreover engage external experts not forming part of Asylum Support Teams as such, but who still provide operational, technical and/or administrative assistance to Member States.
