Classification
What is a battery?
Since the term “battery” is not defined in the TDG Regulations, we must rely on the dictionary definition. The French dictionary Larousse defines a battery as a device that stores energy to be released as needed (for example, cells or batteries).
What is the difference between a cell and a battery?
A cell is a single encased electrochemical unit (one positive and one negative electrode) with a voltage differential across its two terminals (e.g., AA and AAA batteries).
A battery consists of two or more cells connected electrically and equipped with features such as casings, terminals, markings, and protective devices to ensure they work properly (e.g., cordless phone batteries, etc.).
Why is it important to classify batteries properly?
Some batteries are regulated as dangerous goods because they may pose hazards during transport. These hazards include:
- Short circuits, which can lead to fires; and/or
- Leaks of corrosive liquid or other material that can injure people or harm the environment.
Who is responsible for classifying batteries?
The consignor is responsible for classifying dangerous goods (batteries in this case) in accordance with Part 2 of the TDG Regulations.
Batteries are typically classified as Class 8, Corrosives or Class 9, Miscellaneous Products, Substances or Organisms, though some may be considered Class 4.3, Water Reactive Substances.
Are lithium batteries considered dangerous goods?
Yes. In Canada, the shipping and importing of lithium batteries is subject to the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act, 1992 (TDG Act) and its regulations. They are considered dangerous goods much like gasoline, propane and sulfuric acid.
Where are lithium batteries found?
Lithium batteries are used in a wide range of electronic devices such as:
- laptop
- camera
- mobile phone
- video camera
- watch
- medical equipment
- power tools
What are the possible shipping names for batteries?

What is the difference between a “lithium metal battery” and a “lithium ion battery”?
Lithium metal batteries are usually non-rechargeable, contain metallic lithium, and have a higher energy density than other non-rechargeable batteries. Among other things, they are often used in calculators, pacemakers, remote car locks, and watches.
Lithium ion batteries are rechargeable, do not contain metallic lithium, and have a high energy density. Lithium polymer batteries are considered a type of lithium ion battery. Lithium ion batteries are used in consumer goods such as cell phones, electric vehicles, laptop computers, power tools, drones, etc.
What is the difference between “contained in equipment” and “packed with equipment”?
A lithium ion or lithium metal battery contained in equipment means a battery that is embedded in the device. Examples include calculators, laptop computers, or watches.
A lithium ion or lithium metal battery packed with equipment is not embedded in the device. An example would be a power tool packed alongside a spare battery.
Shipping Document
Is a shipping document always required when transporting batteries?
Yes. Unless exempt from the TDG Regulations through a special case, special provision or equivalency certificate, battery shipments must fully comply with the TDG Regulations.
When shipping batteries by marine or air transport, consult Parts 11 and 12 of the TDG Regulations as well as the following documents:
- The International Civil Aviation Organization’s Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (ICAO Technical Instructions); or
- The International Maritime Organization’s International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG Code).
Are electronic shipping documents allowed during transport?
No. A paper copy of the shipping document must always accompany the dangerous goods. Even if the consignor sends electronic copies to the carrier, the carrier must print the document before transporting the dangerous goods and keep a copy of it with the shipment.
Does the shipping document need to be in a certain format?
No. It can be in any format, provided it contains the information required under Part 3 of the TDG Regulations.
However, when dangerous goods are shipped by air, the shipping document must have, in the left and right margins, red hatchings that slant to the left or right as shown below. In addition, Section 12.2 of the TDG Regulations states that the shipping document must be completed in accordance with Chapter 4, Documentation, of Part 5, Shipper's Responsibilities, of the ICAO Technical Instructions.
What information is required on the shipping document?
At minimum, the shipping document must include:
- The name and address of the consignor in Canada
- The shipping date
- A description of the dangerous goods, in the following order:
- The UN number
- The shipping name of the dangerous goods
- The primary and subsidiary class
- Where applicable, the packing group in roman numerals
- The quantity in metric (e.g., kg or L) for transports originating in Canada
- Theʺ 24-Hour Numberʺ of a person who can provide technical information on the dangerous goods
- The consignor’s certification
Note: Other information may be required depending on the mode of transport. For more information on shipping documents, consult Part 3 of the TDG Regulations and the following TDG Bulletin: TDG Bulletin - Shipping Documents.
Dangerous Goods Safety Marks
What dangerous goods safety marks must be displayed on batteries?
Part 4 of the TDG Regulations requires that dangerous goods safety marks be displayed on the means of containment containing dangerous goods in transport.
Note: Under the TDG Regulations, safety marks do not have to be displayed directly on batteries because they are considered dangerous goods and not means of containment.
Safety marks are placed on a container to identify dangerous goods and the type of hazard they present.
A truck transports batteries that are not in a means of containment. What labels and/or placards are required?
On the batteries
The batteries do not need labels, since the TDG Regulations require them only on small means of containment and batteries are not considered means of containment.
On the truck
Under Section 4.15 of the TDG Regulations, the primary class placard for every dangerous good transported in a large means of containment (Class 9, for example) must be displayed on each side and at each end of the large means of containment (the truck, for example).
Note: The TDG Regulations allow an exemption to placard requirements if the gross mass of dangerous goods in a road or railway vehicle is 500 kg or less. However, placards may still be voluntarily displayed. For more details, consult Sections 4.16.1 and 4.1.1 of the TDG Regulations.
A truck transports batteries in a small means of containment. What labels and/or placards are required?
On the small means of containment
Since the batteries are in small means of containment, the labelling requirements of Part 4 of the TDG Regulations apply.
Therefore, each small means of containment must display:
- The primary and subsidiary class labels (if applicable)
- The shipping name
- The UN number
On the truck
As per Section 4.15 of the TDG Regulations, the primary class placard for every dangerous good transported in a large means of containment (Class 9, for example) must be displayed on each side and at each end of the large means of containment (the truck, for example).
Note: The TDG Regulations allow an exemption to placard requirements if the gross mass of dangerous goods in a road or railway vehicle is 500 kg or less. However, placards may still be voluntarily displayed. For more details, consult Sections 4.16.1 and 4.1.1 of the TDG Regulations.
A truck transports batteries that are placed directly on a pallet and secured by shrink wrap. The pallet’s total capacity (volume) is 450 litres or less. What labels and/or placards are required?
On the batteries
The batteries do not need labels since the TDG Regulations require them only on small means of containment and batteries are not considered means of containment.
On the pallet
In this situation, the pallet is considered a small means of containment.
Therefore, the small means of containment (i.e., the pallet and the shrink wrap securing the batteries) must display:
- The primary and subsidiary class labels (if applicable)
- The shipping name
- The UN number
Note: This shipment does not qualify as an overpack as defined in Section 1.4 of the TDG Regulations, since the batteries are placed directly on the pallet rather than in separate small means of containment.
If this pallet is the only small means of containment transported, the shipping document will display “1” in the column indicating the number of small means of containment on which labels are displayed.
On the truck
Under Section 4.15 of the TDG Regulations, the primary class placard for every dangerous good transported in a large means of containment (Class 9, for example) must be displayed on each side and at each end of the large means of containment (the truck, for example).
Note: The TDG Regulations allow an exemption to placard requirements if the gross mass of dangerous goods in a road or railway vehicle is 500 kg or less. However, placards may still be voluntarily displayed. For more details, consult Sections 4.16.1 and 4.1.1 of the TDG Regulations.
A truck transports batteries that are placed in small means of containment and then put on a pallet and secured by shrink wrap. The pallet’s total capacity (volume) is 450 litres or less. What labels and/or placards are required?
On the small means of containment
Since the batteries are in small means of containment, the labelling requirements of Part 4 of the TDG Regulations apply.
Therefore, each small means of containment must display:
- The primary and subsidiary class labels (if applicable)
- The shipping name
- The UN number
On the pallet
In this case, the pallet containing the batteries may be considered an overpack if it meets the definition found in Section 1.4 of the TDG Regulations (for example, it must contain dangerous goods originating from the same consignor).
If it is considered an overpack, Section 4.10.1 of the TDG Regulations will apply.
Therefore, the pallet and the shrink wrap securing the batteries must display:
- The word OVERPACK (not required if the safety marks for each class of dangerous goods inside the overpack are visible through the overpack)
- The primary and subsidiary class labels (if applicable)
- The shipping name
- The UN number
Note: If the pallet is not considered an overpack, Section 4.10.1 of the TDG Regulations does not apply and the word OVERPACK will not be required. However, the pallet will still need to meet dangerous goods safety marks requirements for small means of containment.
On the truck
As per Section 4.15 of the TDG Regulations, the primary class placard for every dangerous good transported in a large means of containment (Class 9, for example) must be displayed on each side and at each end of the large means of containment (the truck, for example).
Note: The TDG Regulations allow an exemption to placard requirements if the gross mass of dangerous goods in a road or railway vehicle is 500 kg or less. However, placards may still be voluntarily displayed. For more details, consult Sections 4.16.1 and 4.1.1 of the TDG Regulations.
A truck transports batteries that are placed directly on a pallet and secured by shrink wrap. The pallet’s total capacity (volume) is greater than 450 litres. What labels and/or placards are required?
On the batteries
The batteries do not need labels since the TDG Regulations require them only on means of containment and batteries are not considered means of containment.
On the pallet and the truck
Unless otherwise indicated, any large means of containment that transports dangerous goods must be standardized. Since no standard adopted by reference in the TDG Regulations may be used to transport batteries in a large means of containment, an equivalency certificate must be obtained from Transport Canada. This certificate willindicate which safety marks to display on the palette and/or the truck.
To learn how to apply for an equivalency certificate, please visit the Equivalency Certificate or consult Part 14 of the TDG Regulations.

What dangerous goods safety marks are required for batteries transported by air?
Domestic transport
To ship batteries within Canada by air, Part 12 of the TDG Regulations offers these two options:
- Comply with the most recent version of the ICAO Technical Instructions and meet additional requirements under the TDG Regulations
or
- Meet requirements under Sections 12.4 to 12.17 for certain types and quantities of dangerous goods
International transport
To ship or import batteries internationally by air, Part 12 of the TDG Regulations requires that you comply with the ICAO Technical Instructions and additional requirements under the TDG Regulations.
To learn about dangerous goods safety mark requirements for batteries transported by air, please consult Part 12 of the TDG Regulations.
What dangerous goods safety marks are required for batteries shipped by marine transport?
To learn about dangerous goods safety marks requirements for batteries transported by vessel, please consult Part 11 of the TDG Regulations.
Means of containment
What standard must be used to transport batteries in small means of containment by road or rail?
As per Section 5.12 of the TDG Regulations, when batteries (Classes 4, 8 or 9) are transported in small means of containment, it must be done in compliance with Packing Instruction 801 of Transport Canada Standard TP14850E. This packing instruction states that:
- Batteries may be handled, offered for transport or transported in a non-UN standardized container if they are placed in a rigid container, in a wooden slatted crate or on a pallet
- Batteries must be protected against short circuits
- Stacked batteries must be adequately secured in tiers separated by a layer of non-conductive material
- Battery terminals must not support the weight of other superimposed elements
- Batteries must be packaged or secured to prevent inadvertent movement
- “Lithium ionique” or “lithium ion;”
What standard must be used to transport batteries in large means of containment by road or rail?
When batteries are not individually packaged but instead stacked on a pallet, or when a large battery is placed on a pallet, Section 5.14 of the TDG Regulations refers to standards CGSB-43.146 and CSA B621 (Canadian Standards Association).
However, means of containment built to these two standards are not designed for batteries. Therefore, to transport batteries in a non-standardized means of containment, you must apply for an equivalency certificate delivered by Transport Canada.
To learn how to apply for an equivalency certificate, please visit the Equivalency Certificates or consult Part 14 of the TDG Regulations.
Training
Does an individual need training to transport batteries?
Part 6 of the TDG Regulations requires that a person who handles, offers for transport or transports dangerous goods, be adequately trained and hold a valid training certificate. However, a person who does not have proper training or a valid training certificate may perform these activities in the presence and under direct supervision of a person who is properly trained and holds a valid training certificate.
Note: A special case (Part 1 of the TDG Regulations) or a special provision (Schedule 2 of the TDG Regulations) may exempt you from these training requirements.
To learn about training requirements, please consult TDG Bulletin - TDG Training.
Special Cases and Special Provisions
What is a special case and how does it apply to the transport of batteries?
Special cases are situations partly or fully exempt from the TDG Regulations. These special cases are found in Sections 1.15 to 1.50 of the Regulations.
Section 1.15 (150 kg Gross Mass Exemption) and Section 1.16 (500 kg Gross Mass Exemption) could apply to the transport of batteries. The two sections limit the gross mass of batteries to 150 or 500 kg respectively and require them to be transported in one or more means of containment, each with a gross mass of 30 kg or less.
As such, these exemptions apply only to the transport of batteries in means of containment with a gross mass of less than 30 kg. If batteries are transported on pallets, the pallets are considered the means of containment. Therefore, the calculation of the gross mass takes the pallet’s mass into account.
To learn more, please consult Sections 1.15 to 1.50 of the TDG Regulations.
