What is the IMO IMDG Code?

The International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code is a globally recognized set of regulations governing the safe transport of dangerous goods by sea. Developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO).

The Code provides guidelines for the classification, packaging, labeling, and documentation of hazardous materials to prevent accidents and ensure safety at sea. It is regularly updated to reflect new safety standards, technological advancements, and changes in international shipping practices.

In addition to publishing the printed version of the Code, IMO has produced a digital version to meet the need for fast, accurate information retrieval and to cater for the differing needs of users.

Which is the current IMDG Code Amendment?
Amendment 41-22 is the current amendment in force valid until 31 December 2025. However, IMO have recently released Amendment 42-24 and during 2025 either amendment can be used. See the Amendment Cycle for more information.
