Jednolity rynek jest jednym z największych osiągnięć integracji europejskiej. Jest także jej siłą napędową. Powstał 1 stycznia 1993 roku. Umożliwia swobodny przepływ ludzi, towarów, usług i kapitału w całej Unii Europejskiej. Od czasu utworzenia jednolity rynek pobudza handel. Za jego sprawą wzrosło znaczenie Unii Europejskiej jako światowego partnera handlowego. Jednolity rynek ułatwia życie obywatelom oraz stymuluje wzrost i rozwój. A to dzięki nowym możliwościom, jakie oferuje przedsiębiorstwom europejskim.

Trzydzieści lat jednolitego rynku europejskiego – osiągnięcia i wyzwania na przyszłość

Recent shocks have shown not only how vulnerable to crises the single market is, but also the extent to which the EU economy relies on a well-functioning single market. To protect it, the European Commission put forward a single market emergency instrument (SMEI) package. The main proposal establishes measures for contingency planning, such as an early warning system. If a wide-ranging crisis hits the single market, an 'emergency mode' could be triggered.

EPRS policy podcast - Single market and the pandemic: Impacts, EU action and recovery

Since its creation in 1993, the single market has helped to make everyday life easier for people and businesses, fuelling jobs and growth across the EU. In 2023, the EU commemorated&nbsp;the 30th anniversary since its creation.&nbsp;

Three decades since its creation,&nbsp;&nbsp;MEPs called for renewed commitment and political will from member states and EU institutions, as well as a specific action plan for 2030 and beyond, in order to further strengthen and develop the single market, especially in areas such as services, energy, telecommunications and the digital single market.

The single market is generally considered to be the cornerstone of the EU economy and one of the greatest achievements of the European Union. Comprising nearly 450 million people and 20 million enterprises, it constitutes the largest integrated market in the world, worth €14 trillion in 2018.

The free movement of persons, goods, services and capital is the pillar on which the single market is built. The cross-border movement of the first three has been severely affected by the pandemic of Covid-19. Soon after its outbreak, the majority of Member States reintroduced internal border controls on grounds of an immediate threat to public health. These have been accompanied by restrictions or bans on international passenger transport and bans on entry and exit.&nbsp;

Single market

Multiple studies have measured the effects of the single market on the EU economy. Quantifications of the benefits vary, but are overwhelmingly positive. A 2019 study suggested that EU citizens' per capita welfare gains from the single market amount to €840 annually. Also in 2019, the European Commission estimated that, mainly due to the removal of tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade, EU GDP is 8-9% higher than if the single market did not exist.
