Rechargeable lithium-air batteries have recently attracted great interest mainly due to their high energy density. The theoretical value is about 11400 Wh/kg which is around 10 times greater
From 1 January 2026, lithium-ion batteries that are packed with equipment and vehicles powered by lithium ion or sodium ion batteries must be offered for air transport with the battery at a reduced state of charge, unless otherwise approved by the relevant States (A331).
Lithium or sodium ion batteries, identified by the manufacturer as being defective for safety reasons, or that have been damaged, that have the potential of producing a dangerous evolution of heat, fire or short circuit are forbidden for transport by air (e.g. those being returned to the manufacturer for safety reasons).
The provisions of the DGR with respect to lithium and sodium ion batteries may also be found in the IATA Battery Shipping Regulations (BSR) 12th Edition. In addition to the content from the DGR, the BSR also has additional classification flowcharts and detailed packing and documentation examples for these batteries.
IATA have updated the battery guidance document to reflect the revisions made in the 2025-2026 edition of the ICAO Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air (Technical Instructions) and the 66th edition (2025) of the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR).
In addition, lithium-ion cells and batteries shipped by themselves must be shipped at a state of charge not exceeding 30% of their rated capacity. Lithium batteries are dangerous goods, and all of the regulatory requirements must be complied with, as set out in the Lithium Battery Shipping Regulations.
A table in the Lithium Battery Shipping Regulations manual gives the precise weight of batteries per package on both cargo and passenger aircraft. All marks and labels must be clearly visible on the exterior of all packages and overpacks. Proper marking and labeling is required when shipping lithium batteries by air.
