On 22 November 2021, Frontex and the European Union Agency for the Operational Management of Large-Scale IT Systems in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (eu-Lisa) signed a renewed Cooperation Plan to further enhance their work together. The renewed Cooperation Plan runs from 2021 to 2023. The plan covers ten thematic areas, including border and migration management, IT security, research and innovation as well as personal data protection.

Currently, cooperation between the agencies focuses on the setting up of the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) that is being developed by eu-LISA, with the ETIAS Central Unit hosted by Frontex (→ news of 12 November 2021).
