• When you export your search results in CVS/EXCEL/TSV/XML, you can include a new piece of metadata: the current consolidated version date.
• You can also export your search results in a compressed zip folder.
• In ‘Customise shown information’, you can choose not to display:
  • CELEX numbers;
  • the HTML and PDF icons that lead to the corresponding document formats (‘Direct text access’ box under ‘Miscellaneous information’).

• We have improved the Document information tab in the document page by reorganising the sections and removing duplicated content.

Each time EUR-Lex publishes a new document related to your selected category, you will be alerted via your browser or an RSS reader.

If you are signed in as a registered user, you can also create your own feeds for searches, documents and procedures.

For more information, see My alerts (RSS feeds).

On the main page, look at the ‘Relationship between documents’ section and click ‘Show relationship graph’.

The central node represents your act, and all the nodes around it represent related documents. Documents of the same type (amendments, delegated acts, consolidated versions…) have nodes of the same colour.

Nodes with a ‘+’ icon indicate that further subcategories of documents are available. Click on the ‘+’ to see them all (and then click on the ‘-’ to hide them again).

Nodes with a ‘file’ icon represent documents. Click on them to go to the related document pages. When you hover over these nodes, the CELEX numbers of the documents appear. If the node represents a procedure, a specific icon is displayed.

The filter table on the left-hand side lets you display different document categories.

The feature is currently only available for links to treaties and case-law.

Example: A link to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union will be TFEU (2016) instead of 12016E043.
