Being one of globalization process manifestation, migration in large causes positive influence on social, economic and political development of states, contributes to integration of integration of international community , cultural convergence of peoples, development of productive forces. However, if migration processes have uncontrolled character, the level of state security is significantly reducing. Especially it has to be considered in the present period when global community faces terrorist threats and violence.

Thus, there is a necessity of the analysis of the EU law application experience in sphere of tackling the illegal migration.
