IMDG Code Amendment 42-24

The IMDG code, 2024 Edition (inc. Amendment 42-24) entered voluntary into use on 1 January 2025 and will become mandatory from 1 January 2026.

The previous IMDG code, 2022 Edition (inc. Amendment 41-22) is valid together with the 2024 Edition until 31 December 2025.

We would like to point out that the shippers/consignors are responsible for ensuring that dangerous goods offered for shipment are classified and declared in accordance with the valid regulations. The shipper* must also ensure that the dangerous substances are packed, marked and documented, the cargo transport units placarded according to the IMDG Code and equipped with securing points.
