New navigation and layout make it easier to find what you’re looking for on the EU site’s main pages – in any official EU language. The new organization aims to distinguish more clearly the legislative contents from the current news about the European Union.

Europa – the EU’s official website – as well as covering EU institutions and laws, it offers practical guidance on moving to another EU country. The website also shows who benefits from EU action, and how.

It is usually the first place people go to look for information on the European Union.With over 6 million pages, the Europa portal is one of the biggest sites in the world. So it’s not surprising it can sometimes be hard to find a specific piece of information. To make the entry pages more user-friendly, the layout has been simplified, dividing the site into 6 main themes reflecting user needs.

• About the EU
• Policies and activities
• Your life in the EU
• Take part!
• Documentation centre
• Media centre

The navigation menu will appear on all pages to make it easier to move around the site without getting lost. By clicking on the Europa logo, you can quickly return to the homepage from wherever you are in the portal. And there will be live navigation help available in English, French and German.
