What is the IATA DGR?

The International Air Transport Association’s Dangerous Goods Regulations (IATA DGR) is the manual used by dangerous goods/hazardous materials shippers, freight forwarders, brokers, and air carriers around the world to mitigate the risks posed by hazardous materials in air transportation.  

View the list of significant changes to the 2024 IATA DGR (65th Ed.).

The IATA DGR combines international hazmat regulations from the United Nations, the ICAO Technical Instructions or "TI," with unique requirements and preferences of member airlines—including passenger airlines and major cargo carriers like UPS and FedEx.

The IATA DGR is updated annually and all revised requirements take effect on January 1 of each new year.
