The Federal Office of Justice is the federal center of competence for law. It manages legislative projects in constitutional, administrative, private, and criminal law. Additionally, the office provides advisory support for all federal legislative activities and is also active in the international arena.

The European Law and Schengen/Dublin Coordination (ERSD) department of the Federal Office of Justice advises the federal administration on European law issues in the context of legislation and ensures the preventive control of the compatibility of legislative and regulatory drafts with bilateral obligations between Switzerland and the EU.
