Dangerous goods transport — regulatory overview

Governing frameworks
  • UNRTDG
  • IMDG
  • ICAO-TI
Primary authority
Ministry of Transport
Also available in
Arabic

In short

Dangerous-goods transport follows UNRTDG, IMDG and ICAO-TI and national rules; Class 1 movements generally require separate approval and route or terminal confirmation.

Domestic dangerous-goods rules are fragmented and cross-border carriage depends heavily on neighboring controls, with IMDG and ICAO-TI applying to sea or air legs where available. Class 1 requires security approval; crossings, escorts and terminal access are case-specific. The named primary authority is Ministry of Transport; shipment-specific permits and current operational acceptance should be verified before booking.

What governs each mode

Derived from the frameworks named above. A mode absent from this list is not necessarily closed — it means the sheet does not record a framework governing it here, which is itself worth asking about.
