| description | The main purpose of the actual paper is to analyze if the phenomenon of immigration has any impact on developing the underground economy for the destination countries and if the size of the underground economy determines any change in the number of legal immigrants, in the European Union. Thus, the research question refers to: Is there any relation between the immigration phenomenon and the underground economy in the EU countries and to what extent is related to? In order to check the relation between the two facts, was performed a Panel Data analysis, using data from 22 EU member states over the period between 2008 and 2015. Meanwhile, was tested the relation between the size of the shadow economy and the share of long-term legal immigrants arriving into the reporting country during the reference year within total population of the reporting country and underlined that there is a bidirectional relation between the two variables.

Unfortunately, illegal immigration is hard to be quantified because of it dynamic and impossibility of monitoring the entire phenomenon. |
