ID 24106 | 12.06.2025 / Edition 2
Lithium Battery Risk Assessment in Carriage of Cargo, Mail and Baggage Guidance for operators
This document is based on the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Annex 6 – Operation of Aircraft, Part I – International Commercial Air Transport – Aeroplanes and the associated Guidance for Safe Operations Involving Aeroplane Cargo Compartments Doc (10102), the ICAO Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (Technical Instructions) (Doc 9284) and the 66th Edition (2025) of the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR).
In the context of Annex 6, Chapter 15, the strategies outlined in this guidance document are primarily directed at an operator’s internal risk management processes, operational procedures, and engaging with other entities in the supply chain, such as manufacturers of lithium batteries, shippers, freight forwarders, designated postal operators and the travelling public in addressing and mitigating the risk associated with the transport of lithium batteries.
This document is divided into cargo operations, focusing on cargo and mail transported in aircraft cargo compartments, and passenger operations, paying particular attention to both carry-on and checked baggage that are carried by passengers and crew.
