SHIPPING PAPER REQUIREMENTS

Unlike domestic road, domestic air shipments are not excepted from documentation. The documentation is like for 1.4S domestic road, except that “LTD QTY” is added to the end of the shipping description. Like for domestic road, the net weight is an acceptable alternative for the net explosives weight.

CARTON MARKING

Limited quantity packages containing cartridges, small arms (ammunitions) must display the limited quantity marking on one side. Unlike for domestic road, the proper shipping name is required for domestic air. Two examples are shown. One is the minimum requirements, and the other is an optional way to use a 1.4S hazard label with “Cartridges for tools, blank” and “UN 0014” as used for international air.

In addition, each carton may have to be marked with the consignor’s or the consignee’s name and address, see 49 CFR §172.301(d) for exceptions*.

box.0014.LQ.domestic

box.0014.LQ.domestic.air.w.hazard.lable

* Per 49 CFR §172.301(d), the package must be marked with the consignor or consignee’s name and address unless the package is:

(1) Transported by highway only and will not be transferred from one carrier to the other;

(2) Part of a carload lot, truckload lot or freight container load, and the entire contents of the rail car, truck or freight container are shipped from one consignor to one consignee.
