Important policy update: More COVID-related products allowed on Shopping

September 2021

Beginning in September, we are relaxing the restriction of certain coronavirus (COVID-19) related products on Shopping ads and free listings. Products like clothing, test kits, home goods, etc. that were previously disapproved due to the COVID-19 sensitive event are now eligible to serve on Shopping ads and free listings. 

Due to this change, at-home COVID-19 test kits are now permitted on Shopping ads and free listings. Only test kits that are authorized by the FDA or your local governing body will be allowed. We will accept test kits where the sample is collected and analyzed at home and also test kits where the sample is collected at home and then sent to a lab for analysis. In alignment with our medical devices policy, all products must adhere to the specific legal requirements of the countries where they are offered.
