Preparing Lithium Battery and Energy Storage Shipments

Prepare battery configuration, model, packaging, rated energy and the route before checking ocean or air acceptance.

Illustrative battery cells and modules

Identify the configuration

Distinguish standalone cells or batteries, batteries packed with equipment, batteries contained in equipment, and energy storage units. Recheck documents if the model, configuration or condition changes.

Gather available documentation

List model, specifications, rated energy, package count and packing details. Provide an available UN 38.3 test summary or SDS for review.

Confirm carriage and handover

Specify origin, destination, timing and delivery constraints. Air and ocean acceptance differ and depend on the applicable requirements and the carrier’s conditions for the shipment.

Confirm acceptance, documents and delivery conditions by cargo, route and carrier.
