1. Conditions for ships carrying dangerous goods

Ships carrying dangerous goods must have certain conditions, especially ships carrying all dangerous goods must have the inspection certificate of the ship supervision department. Therefore, for the consignment of highly dangerous goods (referred to as CLASS1, CLASS2, CLASS3.1, CLASS5.2, and CLASS7), it is necessary to know in advance whether the ship can be transported properly, so as to avoid delaying the loading period after the ship is re-entered.

Second, avoid unnecessary default events during transshipment

At present, many ports of goods need to be transshipped in Hong Kong and Singapore. These two ports have special regulations and requirements for the movement of dangerous goods. Many varieties are prohibited from transshipment. For dangerous goods that must be transshipped at these two ports, be sure to contact the relevant shipping company before the contract is concluded to check whether the above two ports can be transshipped to prevent unnecessary breach of contract.

Third, the truth-seeking treatment of dangerous goods consignment declaration

We should treat the consignment and declaration of dangerous goods in a realistic manner, and never report, report, misreport or report. Dangerous goods are also more expensive than ordinary goods due to high transportation requirements. In the existing circumstances of independent accounting, self-financing, and difficult business, we must consider accounting costs and reduce expenses; we should also consider risk factors to ensure shipping safety, both of which must be considered.

1. Listed in the Schedule of International Maritime Dangerous Regulations, not necessarily dangerous goods. Determining whether a cargo is a dangerous product should be determined according to a series of factors such as its content, production process, physical and chemical properties, and degree of hazard. It cannot be simply measured by the name of the product.

2. If there is no specific list in the “International Maritime Dangerous Regulations”, it cannot be said that it is not a dangerous goods. Dangerous rules are not the book of Wanbao. It is impossible to cover all kinds of dangerous goods in the world without fail. In particular, today's world science and technology are constantly developing, new products are springing up like mushrooms, and many new dangerous goods are increasing over time. Therefore, for items that do have dangerous characteristics, although they are not listed in the dangerous regulations, we should declare them as dangerous goods in a realistic manner during consignment to facilitate shipping safety. The reporting method shall be applied according to the characteristics of the material according to the regulations of the dangerous regulations. For example, the characteristics of the new commodity are flammable liquids, and the type is determined according to the number of flashes in the closed cup. The flash point of the closed cup is 20 degrees Celsius, which is unspecified flammable. Liquid; toxic substances are prepared in categories according to the amount of LD50 in the pre-toxicity table.

3. In addition to the International Maritime Dangerous Regulations, each country has its own dangerous regulations. In order to respect the regulations of each country, any country that has a dangerous regulation as a dangerous goods is exported to this country, even if it is an international maritime crisis. This substance is not listed in the Regulations and should be declared as dangerous goods. For example, China exports oxalic acid to the United States, and China does not transport dangerous goods. The International Maritime Dangerous Regulations are not listed here, but the US dangerous regulations are classified as dangerous goods, so they must be declared as dangerous goods in transportation; otherwise, the US ports Will not be unloaded or fined.

Fourth, the correct and strict transportation procedures and packing steps

The procedures and packing of dangerous goods transportation shall be handled in strict accordance with the relevant provisions of the port. The Ministry of Communications has many regulations on loading and unloading and transporting dangerous goods. The law enforcement agencies of each port are the port authorities, such as the harbour supervision. The following two requirements are for the shipper, freight forwarder, shipping agent, and carrier to comply with the following:

1. The applicant who handles the “Packaged Dangerous Goods Safe and Applicable Declaration Form” and “Ship Cargo Dangerous Goods Declaration Form” must be a full-time reporter who has received professional training from the port supervision and obtained the application certificate after passing the examination.

2. The container packing point of dangerous goods must be approved and approved by the harbour superintendent in advance. It is necessary to have dangerous goods container supervisors. The supervisors need to receive professional training from the port supervision and obtain the supervision certificate after passing the examination. Containers carrying dangerous goods shall be handled by the “declaration” of the packing point with the one-way port superintendent to handle the “packaged dangerous goods safety and transportation declaration form” (goods declaration). After the container is packed, the inspector shall sign the “Container Certificate for Container Loading Dangerous Goods” and promptly send it to the Port Authority for reference.

It must be noted that the signature of the packing point and the inspector must be the same as the filing in the port superintendent. Do not wear a flag to avoid unnecessary trouble.
