The article examines both the ratione personae and materiae scope of application of the EU Charter of the Fundamental Rights, which has no autonomous/self-standing applicability. It analyses the scope of the application of the Charter under Article 51 of the Charter with its legal grounds in terms of its addressees, i.e. EU institutions, bodies, offices and agencies, the Member States and natural/legal persons. The CJEU's case-law, which not only confirms and consolidates through teleological interpretation the previous case-law regarding fundamental rights constituting an integral part of the EU general principles, but also refrains on the principle of conferral from granting the Charter an autonomous and independent applicability in order to avoid federalising effect in the EU legal order, is scrutinised.
