Developed by the European GNSS Agency (GSA) in collaboration with the European Commission, the app is a key tool in the EU’s COVID-19 pandemic response.

By easing traffic flow through the EU’s internal borders, the app is helping to support a fundamental EU principle – the free movement of goods and freight in the internal market.

The Galileo Green Lane app uses the positioning services of Galileo – Europe’s Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) – to monitor and facilitate the free movement of freight, making it possible to reduce waiting times at the EU’s internal land borders and facilitate the transport of goods.
