Enabling end-to-end digital dangerous goods data exchange
The 2026 IATA DG AutoCheck Forum will take place in Bangkok, Thailand on Monday, 14 September, bringing together the global dangerous goods (DG) community to explore how digitalization is transforming the end-to-end DG processes and data exchange.
Shippers, freight forwarders, airlines, ground handlers, technology providers, and industry experts will come together to share progress, practical experiences, and the concrete steps needed to move from fragmented, paper-based processes to fully connected, digital workflows.
Through real examples (use cases) , open discussions, and interactive workshops, the forum will explore how the industry is:
- Capturing DG data at the source through the creation and adoption of the electronic Shipper’s Declaration for Dangerous Goods (e DGD)
- Enabling trusted, end-to-end digital data flows across the supply chain
- Improving compliance, safety, and operational efficiency
- Connecting systems through APIs and interoperable standards, supporting (seamless) integrations
- Reusing DG data across stakeholders, eliminating duplication and enhancing data quality
Anchored in our End to end DG transformation vision, the forum will showcase how DG AutoCheck supports a standardized, scalable, and interoperable ecosystem, enabling stakeholders to exchange DG data once and use it throughout the entire transport lifecycle.
Whether you are actively implementing digital DG processes or planning your next steps, this forum offers practical insights, exchanges, and direct engagement with your peers shaping the future of DG digitalization.
