The Dangerous Goods Check Sheet form plays a crucial role in ensuring the safe and compliant transport of hazardous materials by air. Originating from the 2015 56th edition guidelines, this comprehensive checklist facilitates thorough verification of non-radioactive shipments before acceptance or refusal. Key elements scrutinized include the Shipper's Declaration for Dangerous Goods in dual copies and in English, adhering to the IATA format with essential air certification statements. It mandates the inclusion of the full name and address of both the shipper and consignee, air waybill number, quantity, and type of packing, ensuring all dangerous goods are correctly identified, classified, and packaged according to the specified instructions. The checklist covers packing instructions, authorizations, additional handling information, and air waybill-handling information, touching on specific requirements from marking packages with the UN or ID number, proper shipping name, class or division, packing group, and ensuring appropriate labels are displayed. It also specifies the conditions for overpacks and highlights the need for a declaration statement for dangerous goods attached to the air waybill. Compliance with state and operator variations, alongside the clear expression of labeling, markings, and documentation for hazardous substances such as lithium batteries, is emphasized. This form acts as a safety net, instructing not to accept shipments if any criteria are not met, thereby maintaining high safety standards in the transport of dangerous goods by air.
