41According to settled case-law of the Court, it follows from the need for uniform application of EU law and from the principle of equality that the terms of a provision of EU law which makes no express reference to the law of the Member States for the purpose of determining its meaning and scope must normally be given an autonomous and uniform interpretation throughout the European Union; that interpretation must take into account not only its wording but also its context and the objective pursued by the legislation in question (judgment of 2 June 2022, T.N. and N.N. (Declaration concerning the waiver of succession), C‑617/20, EU:C:2022:426, paragraph 35 and the case-law cited).
