Abstract: MERCOSUR encompasses a geographic region historically characterized by continuous and intense migratory movements. In this context, a series of regulations have been approved to facilitate the mobility of people and their residence within the regional space. Among the most significant instruments are the Residence Agreements for Nationals of the States Parties and Associates of MERCOSUR, which came into effect on July 28, 2009. These agreements recognize the right of nationals of the MERCOSUR States to movement, residence, and access to economic activities under equal conditions with the nationals of the host State. However, knowledge about their scope, implementation, and effective application in the various areas of the regional integration process remains limited. This article aims to analyze the impact of the MERCOSUR Residence Agreements on regional integration, considering them as one of the most relevant legal sources regarding the movement of people. To this end, the qualitative method is used, resorting to an exploratory, descriptive, and explanatory socio-legal methodology, through normative, jurisprudential, and doctrinal documentary analysis.

Palabras clave : Migration; Mercosur Residence Agreements; Integration.
