Column A: - UNID UN3268 [Hide]
Description:
UN or ID (identification) number—Contains the serial number assigned to the article or substance under the United Nations classification system. When this number is used, it must be prefixed by the letters “UN”. If the substance has not been assigned a number in the UN classification system, a temporary identification number in the 8000 series has been assigned and is indicated where appropriate. Numbers in the 8000 series must be identified with the “ID” prefix instead of when UN is indicated for markings and documentation in these Regulations. For example, the number would appear as UN 1950 or ID 8000 and not as 1950 or 8000.

†—Additional information can be found in Appendix A.
Note:
The “★” and “†” symbols are not part of the proper shipping name.
Names are given in strict alphabetical order of the proper shipping name appearing in bold print, i.e. where names comprise more than one word, they are alphabetized as if they were a single word. However, the following components of the names have been ignored:
  • numerals;
  • the single letters a-, b-, m-, N-, n-, O-, o-, p-;
  • the prefixes alpha-, beta-, meta-, omega-, sec-, tert-;

Description:
Special Provisions—May show a single, double or triple digit number preceded by the letter “A”, against appropriate entries in the List of Dangerous Goods. This alpha-numeric indicator relates to Subsection 4.4 and applies to all the packing groups permitted for the entry concerned, unless the wording of the special provision makes it otherwise apparent.
It must be carefully noted that Special Provisions “ A1” and “ A2” are, in effect, “approvals” which may be granted by States for the carriage of dangerous goods which are normally forbidden for carriage either on passenger aircraft or on cargo aircraft. These “approvals” are not regarded as “State Exemptions” as described in 1.2.6.1. However, acceptance of dangerous goods under State approvals is at the discretion of the operator(s). Advance arrangements must be made and prior approval obtained before dangerous goods offered under “A1” or “A2” Special Provisions are presented to operators for transport. See also 1.2.6.4.
