Exercise of the right of access to the Schengen Information System

The Czech Republic, member of the Schengen area, uses the Shengen Information System (SIS).

The SIS is a shared database, which is used by the Schengen participating states and contains mainly the following data: persons whose entry is undesirable, prosecuted persons, missing persons, persons sought after in connection to criminal court proceedings, or missing items and property (such as vehicles, arms, personal documents, forged banknotes, and others).

Persons who are listed in the SIS will be denied entry to the Czech Republic/Schengen area.

Persons who are denied entry into Schengen area based on being logged in the SIS, have a right to request explanation from the authorities of the state, which made the entry.
