Dangerous Goods Policy

AAHRIT LOGISTICS does not carry, nor perform other services regarding goods which in our sole opinion are dangerous goods, including, but not limited to, those specified in the International Air Transport Association (IATA) dangerous goods regulations.

AAHRIT LOGISTICS may at its discretion accept some dangerous goods for carriage (such as Lithium Batteries) in certain circumstances. Your dangerous goods will only be accepted if they comply with the applicable regulations, codes and technical instructions and our requirements. Details of our requirements are available by contacting an AAHRIT LOGISTICS Service Centre.
