The European Commission has issued a communication (C (2020) 1897) on the implementation of "green lanes" in the framework of the Guidelines for border management measures to protect health and ensure the availability of goods and essential services.

The communication states that medicines (including veterinary medicines), personal protective equipment, and live animals are included in the products that have access to the 'green lanes' at border crossings.

Point 25 of that communication states:

"To ensure the continuation of the flow of goods and materials, particularly fresh food and essential food products, live animals and feed, agricultural production inputs, medicines including veterinary medicines, personal protection equipment (PPE), and substances of human origin, and industrial inputs for production and maintenance of these processes, transport workers and operators of critical and essential supply chain services in all modes of transport should be considered as one of the priority groups – after strictly medical needs are addressed - in the distribution and allocation of personal protection equipment (PPE) such as disinfection products and gloves."
