Specific Q: Hello, Question 1: I would like to ask if packages of dangerous goods imported in excepted quantities need to have container codes and markings on the packaging cardboard? (Similar to such markings: UN 4G/Y8/S/20 CN/4400 171) In the national standard "GB28644.1-2012 Excepted quantities and packing requirements of dangerous goods", it states: Dangerous goods transported in excepted quantities, except for the following a and b, comply with the provisions of this standard and can be exempted from any other requirements for the transport of dangerous goods. a: Training requirements for personnel engaged in the transport of dangerous goods, see "United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods" 1.3; b: Requirements for classification, classification procedures, and packaging group of dangerous goods, see "United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods" Part 2. Question 2: "Can be exempted from any other requirements for the transport of dangerous goods," does this mean that the container codes and markings on the packaging cardboard can be exempted?
A: According to the "United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods", excepted quantity packaging may not require UN markings, but the packages should have excepted quantity markings.
