1. Complexity of cargo identification and classification
The primary task of importing and exporting dangerous goods by sea is to accurately identify and classify the goods. There are many types of dangerous goods, each with its own unique chemical properties and danger levels. The level of the risk factor is directly related to the safety measures and process control in the transportation process. Once the risk level and category are determined, the corresponding transportation plan can be formulated according to this information. Therefore, before the goods are shipped, we must accurately identify their danger level and category. This is not only to meet regulatory requirements, but also to ensure safety and reduce risks during transportation.
2. Strict requirements for packaging and marking
The packaging and marking of dangerous goods is an important link in the import and export of dangerous goods by sea. Qualified packaging can prevent dangerous goods from leaking, explosion and other dangerous situations during transportation, and clear labeling can allow relevant personnel to quickly identify the nature and characteristics of dangerous goods. Therefore, the packaging and labeling of dangerous goods must comply with international standards and regulations, and the dangerous goods identification plate needs to be clearly posted on the package. These signs should not only have accurate text descriptions, but also need to have easy-to-understand graphic symbols, so that they can be accurately identified in different countries and regions. Of course, the Posting of dangerous goods signs also has strict requirements, including location, language and adaptability.
The import and export of dangerous goods by sea involves many links, including booking, declaration, customs declaration, port entry, etc. Each link needs to be operated in accordance with the prescribed processes and standards to ensure the smooth progress of transportation. When booking, we need to provide detailed cargo information and necessary documents, such as MSDS. These documents need to be accurate, otherwise they may cause delays or disruptions to the shipment. In the declaration and customs declaration process, it is necessary to ensure that the information provided is true, accurate and complete, and meets the requirements of the customs. In addition, in the process of importing and exporting dangerous goods by sea, it is also necessary to strengthen communication and cooperation with other relevant parties, such as the ship, the port, etc., to ensure the smooth progress of transportation.
4. Develop risk response measures
There are many risks in the process of importing and exporting dangerous goods by sea, such as leakage, explosion, fire, etc. These risks will not only cause losses to goods, but also threaten people's lives and property safety. Therefore, risk management is an important part in the import and export of dangerous goods by sea. In order to reduce the risk, a series of measures need to be taken, such as strengthening the packaging and marking of goods, improving the safety of transportation equipment, and strengthening the training and management of personnel. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to changes in domestic and foreign laws and regulations, and timely adjust risk management strategies to cope with possible challenges.
5. Familiar with relevant laws and regulations
The import and export of dangerous goods by sea is subject to strict laws and regulations, including international conventions and domestic laws and regulations. These laws and regulations have detailed provisions and requirements on the transportation, packaging, marking and other aspects of dangerous goods. Practitioners need to be familiar with and comply with these laws and regulations to ensure the compliance and safety of the import and export of dangerous goods by sea.
