International lithium battery transportation is governed by a hierarchy of regulatory bodies: UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods: This foundational framework assigns lithium-ion batteries (UN3480, UN3481) and lithium-metal batteries (UN3090, UN3091) specific UN numbers. It also mandates UN38.3 testing, which includes:
OSS/Cargo Page 3 01/01/2025 Definitions Lithium Battery refers to a family of batteries with different chemistries, comprising many types of cathodes and electrolytes. For the purposes of the DGR they are separated into lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries.
By staying informed, proactively updating processes, and working with experienced logistics providers, organizations can safely navigate the complex world of lithium battery shipping and avoid costly delays, fines, or accidents. Learn lithium battery shipping rules for the U.S., China, U.K., Germany, Japan, Australia & Canada.
Lithium batteries are classified as UN3480 (lithium-ion) or UN3090 (lithium metal). This distinction depends on energy capacity (Wh) and lithium content (grams). Fully regulated batteries exceed 100Wh (lithium-ion) or 2g (lithium metal). Smaller cells may qualify as “excepted” under limited quantity rules.
