What delivery can you send lithium batteries for?

With the development of Chinese economy, more and more Chinese products enter the international market. On the other hand, in the face of various types of products, especially dangerous goods such as lithium batteries, the customs regulations on imported goods are very strict. Therefore, there are many friends who do foreign trade will ask: "lithium batteries are dangerous goods can be mailed", "mailing batteries need to pay attention to what", "those couriers can send batteries for export" and other questions. Logistics Baba small editor through the collection of the following points, hoping to help you.

1. First of all, the four major international couriers DHL, FEDEX, UPS, and TNT can all mail battery goods, but they are different in accepting battery classification, among which:

DHL: Lithium-ion core, cells, batteries, notebook cells, camera cells, mobile phone cells, etc..

FEDEX: Lithium-ion core, cell, battery, lithium metal cell, ultra-WH, super-weight cell, counterfeit cell, dry cell, mobile power supply.

TNT: Lithium-ion core, cells, batteries, lithium metal cells, ultra-WH, super-weight cells, counterfeit batteries, dry cells, mobile power supply.

UPS: Lithium-ion core, cells, batteries, dry cells, counterfeit batteries.

Can do general trade declaration: alkaline batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, button batteries, avionics batteries, 18650 batteries, mobile phone batteries, camera batteries, notebook batteries, electric vehicle batteries, power batteries, batteries, electric vehicles, mobile power supplies, uninterrupted power supply and other supporting battery products And ...

2. Lithium battery transport packaging requirements:

In addition to meeting the test items required by UN 38.3, lithium battery products are also strictly required for their transport packaging. Their packaging must meet the requirements of the corresponding packing instructions(PI 965 ~ PI 970) in the Dangerous Goods Rules.

According to the packaging status of lithium batteries at the time of delivery, the Dangerous Goods Rules classify lithium battery goods into the following three types of packaging modes of transport:

(1) According to the IATA Dangerous Goods Code packing instructions PI 965-970(including Parts I and II), lithium battery cargo delivered for transport should meet the following requirements:

.. Lithium batteries must pass UN 38.3;

.. Lithium batteries should be packed into the inner packaging that can fully encapsulate the batteries. Lithium batteries must be packaged to prevent short circuits.

.. The power core and battery manufacturing site must have quality management procedures, such as the manufacturing site should meet the requirements of ISO9001;

.. Lithium batteries that have been identified by the manufacturer as defective or damaged for safety reasons may develop potential risks of heat, combustion and short circuits and should not be transported by air.

.. Air transport of used batteries and batteries transported for recycling or disposal purposes is prohibited unless written approval has been obtained from the competent authority of the country of origin and the country of operator.

(2) The air transport of lithium battery cargo is subject to the following requirements:

.. The separately packaged lithium ion battery cargo(UN 3480, PI 965) is prohibited from using passenger aircraft for transportation.

.. Lithium-ion battery cargo transported in accordance with packing instruction PI 965 shall not exceed 30 % of the rated capacity of the lithium-ion battery(core) at the time of shipment unless approved in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Technical Rules.

.. In any one vote, not more than one lithium battery cargo package and/or composite package shall be transported in accordance with Part II of packing note 965 or Part II of 968.

.. There shall not be more than one package of lithium battery goods to be transported in each composite packaging as required under Part II of packing note 965 or part II of 968.

.. Lithium battery cargo packages or synthetic packages required for transport under Part II of packing note 965 or Part II of 968 shall be shipped separately from other goods and shall not be loaded into assemblers prior to shipment.

3. Notes for mailing lithium batteries:

.. Lithium batteries are packaged and transported as separate goods, and lithium batteries must be packaged and transported as separate articles(bulk / assembly).

.. General cargo and batteries need to be packed in separate boxes, can not be mixed, can be the same vote out.

.. Battery outlet, the box must be strong and can pass the 1.2 M drop test, while not damaging the battery, will not move the internal objects, will not let the internal objects exposed.

.. Lithium batteries should be loaded with pallets to avoid strong vibration during handling, and each vertical and horizontal edge of the pallet is protected by corner protection.

.. Large batteries must be packaged in foam.

.. Outer box packaging cartons thin soft, round, irregular outside drum packaging does not receive goods, pure battery packaging must be packed in thick cartons.
