Dangerous Goods Paperwork

Along with our hazardous packing services, Evolution can complete all of the necessary hazardous paperwork on your behalf, ensuring that your consignments are correctly documented and move quickly through the supply chain without any hold ups.

The Dangerous Goods Note (DGN) is a transport document that gives details about the contents of a consignment to carriers, receiving authorities and forwarders and is used to accompany hazardous goods in transit. You can use a DGN when you transport goods using all forms of transport except air freight, when the IATA Dangerous Goods Declaration is used.

When you transport dangerous goods, your consignment must be accompanied by a document that declares what the dangers of the goods are. By using a DGN, you can complete the same standard document for all consignments of dangerous goods, regardless of which port they are going to. When you use a DGN it gives the receiving authority complete, accurate and timely information about your consignment. So they have clear and precise details on how your goods should be handled, especially in the case of an emergency.
