International Border Crossing Observatory

In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic many countries across the globe are closing their borders. In order to reduce economic and social impacts and keep supply chains working as smoothly as possible, #UNECE, #UNESCWA, #IRU and other partners have launched an online “Observatory on Border Crossings Status due to COVID-19” which provides an overview of all updated information regarding border crossing limitations and requirements worldwide.

International movement and connectivity are facing unprecedented challenges as an increasing number of countries around the world close their borders and impose travel restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This is causing huge delays at borders in many countries and making it increasingly difficult to keep road transport supply chains open.

If this situation lasts, it could impact the delivery of essential goods, such as food and medical items, especially for the countries that are the most dependent on imports to cover basic needs.

To facilitate the work of transport operators and preserve connectivity by keeping supply chains working as smoothly as possible, UNECE is launching an “Observatory on Border Crossings Status due to COVID-19” which gathers all updated information regarding border crossing limitations worldwide.
