We are proud to be the first airline in the world to obtain IATA\u2019s CEIV Lithium Battery certification, which proves our commitment to transporting a critical commodity both safely and reliably. We hope that more players in the industry can become accredited in order to support the safe transportation of a product that is key to air cargo growth\u201d, said Andr\u00e9s Bianchi, CEO of LATAM Cargo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2022\/09\/latam-airlines-returns-to-connect-antofagasta-with-lima.html\">LATAM Airlines returns to connect Antofagasta with Lima.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shipments of lithium batteries -either on their own or in finished products- must meet well-established global safety standards for manufacturing process, testing, packaging, marking, labeling and documentation. These requirements are key to the IATA Lithium Battery Shipping Regulations (LBSR) and the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR), which combine regulatory and operational aspects based on advice from industry experts and government regulators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe congratulate LATAM Cargo on becoming the first airline to achieve this certification. Increasing the number of CEIV Lithium Battery certified stakeholders along the value chain will lead to a safer industry and a higher recognition of this certification\u201d said Frederic Leger, IATA Senior Vice President Commercial Products &amp; Services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CEIV Lithium Battery family is IATA&#8217;s most recent CEIV certification. It is in line with similar certifications for the handling of pharmaceuticals, perishables, and live animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related
