The CESEDA is divided into a legislative part (partie législative) and a regulatory part (partie réglementaire) and reflects the French administrative law tradition of comprehensive codification. The Code has been substantially amended by successive immigration laws, including the Law of 24 July 2006 on Immigration and Integration, the Law of 16 June 2011 on Immigration, Integration, and Nationality, the Law of 7 March 2016 on the Right of Foreigners in France, and the Law of 26 January 2024 for Controlling Immigration, Improving Integration.</p>
