Den Europæiske Unions Domstol er den judicielle myndighed i EU.

Dette sikrer, at EU er baseret på retsstatsprincippet, som er en del af fundamentet i enhver demokratisk enhed. Domstolen træffer afgørelser vedrørende forbrugerbeskyttelse, miljø, privatlivets fred, ligebehandling og arbejdstageres rettigheder, som direkte påvirker alle unionsborgere, og sikrer dermed, at unionsborgere er beskyttet af EU-retten på samme måde, uanset hvor de befinder sig i EU.
