SITPRO Dangerous Goods Note (DGN) – For Road & Sea Transport of Hazardous Goods
The Dangerous Goods Note (SITPRO DGN) or Dangerous Goods Declarations are used to accompany deliveries of hazardous goods in transit by Road and Sea.
Ensure your hazardous goods are transported safely and in full compliance with international and national regulations. Dangerous Goods Notes are a standardised transport document, essential for consignments involving road or sea freight.
What is a Dangerous Goods Note (DGN)? The SITPRO DGN is used to inform carriers, forwarders, and receiving authorities about the nature and handling requirements of the dangerous goods being transported. The DGN ensures that all parties involved in the logistics chain have accurate and timely information to manage the consignment safely.
This document outlines vital details about the contents of your shipment, including classification, UN numbers, packaging instructions, and emergency response information. The uniform format makes it easier to prepare documents for all shipments, regardless of their destination port or Inland Container Depot (ICD).
If you use the Customs Freight Simplified Procedures you can use a DGN as a pre-shipment advice. DGNs give the receiving authority complete, accurate and timely information about your consignment so they have clear and precise details on how your goods should be handled. This also means that everyone who has an interest in your consignment has adequate information at each movement stage.
Why Use a SITPRO DGN?
- Standardised Compliance: Complete one standardised shipping document for all dangerous goods consignments.
- Enhanced Safety: Communicates the nature of the hazards and handling protocols at every stage of transit.
- Simplified Processes: Accepted across UK ports and ICDs, streamlining documentation procedures.
- Customs Ready: If you’re using the Customs Freight Simplified Procedures (CFSP), the DGN can serve as a pre-shipment advice document.
