The European Federalist Party is a pro-European, pan-European and federalist political party which advocates further integration of the European Union through the establishment of a democratic and federal Europe.
The party was launched in Paris on 6 November 2011 as a merger of Europe United and the French Federalist Party. Its aim is to gather all Europeans to promote European federalism and to participate in all elections all over Europe. Its first electoral contest was the European Parliament election, 2014, in which it failed to secure a seat. At the 6th European Federalist Convention (December 3, 2016), the European Federalist Party agreed to integrate itself into a new Euro-federalist organisation called Stand Up For Europe, together with Stand up for the United States of Europe and United States of Europe Now.
The EFP claims to be the first truly transnational party in Europe, with sections in 16 countries and electoral candidates across the continent. Its transnational credentials are rooted in its operation as a single party, rather than an alliance of national European parties. The EFP has national and regional sections in:
The EFP also has representatives in other EU countries, as well as in 
Iceland, 
Norway, 
China, and the 
United States.
