Joining the Eurozone

As a full member of the OSCE since 1975, Monaco was included in the creation of the European Union, thanks particularly to the customs and monetary union with France. The Principality therefore became part of the Schengen area and was involved in the creation of a single currency, leading to the introduction of the euro in 2002. Monaco was granted the right to circulate 1/500 of the euros released in France. Monegasque euro coins were minted, giving further proof of the reality of Monegasque sovereignty.
