Things to note

Classification

Firstly, it is important to classify the correct DG classification. The classification will determine how the goods should be packed for transport. Additionally, the classification will also determine the transport type and flight options. 

Documentation
DG Declaration

A Dangerous Goods Declaration (DGD) certificate is required to accompany the DG cargo during air transport. It provides all necessary information such as DG class, contact info, carrier type and packing instructions. So it is especially important to ensure all information is correctly reflected on the DGD.
