Airlines, freight forwarders, ground handlers and shippers like you rely on the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) every day to make sure dangerous goods are transported safely and efficiently.

The DGR helps you classify, mark, pack, label and document dangerous shipments and hazardous materials in compliance with air transport regulations.

Please find the English Addendum to the 67th edition of the IATA DGR. Also available in: French (pdf), German (pdf), Russian (pdf), Spanish (pdf), Chinese (pdf). The Japanese version is coming soon.

All updates and editorial changes will be applied to the digital format of the manual and made available as of January 1st 2026. These will be incorporated into the next print edition, unless requested otherwise. 

We invite you to circulate the enclosed information with relevant staff involved in the handling and transportation of dangerous goods and recommend that they insert a copy of the addendum into their print manuals. We hope that the inclusion of the latest updates will prove helpful in the execution of your ongoing operations.
