Abstract: Human trafficking has become one of the most versatile and hard to combat social phenomenon. Coordination of national action plans and legislative harmonization are vital for preventing traffick-ing, punishing traffickers and protecting victims. Even though national legal rules concerning human trafficking are similar, regional circumstances have to be taken into account, adapting these rules ac-cordingly. Uniform criminal rules could be one solution to prevent and successfully combat transnational human trafficking. Presently, European Union legislation concerning human trafficking is considered to be one of the most complex legal tools, showing clear objectives, precise language and good implementation procedures. However, in spite of its complexity, the positive results in fight-ing human trafficking are not satisfactory, leaving room for debate and concern.
