Lithium battery compliance strategy under the new energy trend
From smartphones to new energy vehicles, lithium batteries have become an indispensable "energy supply" for modern life. However, according to international regulations such as the "Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Model Regulations" and the "International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code", lithium batteries belong to Class 9 miscellaneous dangerous goods. Its transportation and export must comply with international regulations. A non-compliant operation may lead to cargo detention, high fines and even safety accidents!
