The IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) provide a comprehensive framework for the safe transport of dangerous goods by air.
Established by the International Air Transport Association, these regulations outline essential guidelines for the classification, packaging, labelling, and documentation of hazardous materials to ensure the safety of passengers, crew, and the aircraft.
The DGR is updated annually to reflect changes in safety standards and technological advancements, incorporating international guidelines such as those set by the United Nations. By adhering to the IATA DGR, airlines and freight forwarders can effectively manage risks associated with the air transport of dangerous goods, fostering a safer global air transport network.
