Questions about IATA DGR.
What are the IATA DGR regulations?
They are the International Air Transport Association (IATA) regulations for the air transport of dangerous goods. They set which goods can fly, quantity limits per package, packaging, labels and the documentation the shipper must provide.
Can all dangerous goods travel by air?
No. Some goods are forbidden, others are allowed only on cargo aircraft or within quantity limits. Each airline may also apply its own restrictions: that is why we check acceptance before confirming the shipment.
Do you ship lithium batteries?
Yes, subject to checks. Lithium batteries are dangerous goods and the rules change depending on type, power and whether they are shipped on their own or inside equipment. We check every case with the technical data sheet in hand.
What do you need for a quote?
The safety data sheet of the goods, quantity, type of packaging, weights and dimensions of the packages and the destination airport or city. With these details we check acceptance with the airline and propose a solution.
