The article 349 of the TFEU acknowledges the special characteristics of the outermost regions and affords them a special status. The nine outermost regions are the Azores, the Canary Islands, Guadeloupe, Guyana, Madeira, Martinique, Mayotte, Réunion and Saint Martin. Despite a significant EU funding over the years (almost 13,3 billion EUR between 2014-2020), the outermost regions continue to face serious challenges and most of them still need investment in basic infrastructure and their economy depends on a limited number of economic sectors with constraints related to their remoteness bringing additional costs to their companies while impeding their full participation in the single market.
