The Vatican is not part of the European Union - do not let it go
An unusual fact about the unusual gosudarstve
Holy See, which is located on the sovereign territory of the Vatican, simply has no right to join the European Union. It does not meet the criteria of the European Union, which have been formulated in Copenhagen. In other words, the Vatican is not a free-market democracy. In addition, the European Parliament does not share the opinion of the Holy See regarding homosexuality.
The Holy See is regarded as a sovereign state with a central government, and this is called "Roman Curia". But it's not a democracy, it is a theocracy. Theocracy - a system in which someone, usually a priest, ruled by the name of the Lord. In the case of the Vatican Pope ruled on behalf of the Lord Catholic Church. Diplomatically Holy See speaks and acts on behalf of the whole Catholic Church.
Since the Vatican is very small, and is surrounded by EU states, it is inextricably linked with the European Union, it is not even being its integral part. It has open borders with the EU, as well as the single currency it uses the euro. The Vatican released from duties and taxes. Therefore, a very small amount of goods exported from the Vatican, is not subject to duty.
In addition, the EU has provided the Holy See permission to print one million euros per year. And on special occasions Vatican can print more 300,000 euros.
