Європейський Суд – одна з п’яти офіційних інституцій Європейського Союзу, найвищий суд ЄС, рішення якого не можуть бути оскаржені.

Суд Європейських Спільнот в Люксембурзі був однією з перших інституцій Спільноти, заснованих Паризьким договором 1951 року. Римський договір 1957 року зобов’язав його наглядати за виконанням усіх європейських договорів.

До складу Суду ЄС входять по одному судді від кожної держави-члена (після останнього розширення – 27), яким допомагають вісім генеральних адвокатів. Суддів і адвокатів призначають за загальної згоди держав-членів на шестирічний термін. Суд може засідати в палатах або збиратися на пленарні засідання для розгляду особливо важливих чи складних справ та на вимогу держав-членів.

Він виконує дві основні функції:

· перевіряє на відповідність договорам документи, видані європейськими інституціями та урядами;

· тлумачить право Спільноти на запит національних судів.
