Which details are required on the Shipper's Declaration for Dangerous Goods beyond the UN number and PSN?

• A. Shipper and consignee details, authorized signature, UN number, PSN, hazard class/division, packing group, and quantity
• B. Only the UN number and PSN
• C. Only the hazard class/division and packing group
• D. Shipper's phone number only

Answer: (A)

Details beyond the UN number and the proper shipping name are needed on the Shipper’s Declaration to ensure proper handling, regulatory compliance, and quick emergency response. In addition to UN number and PSN, the declaration should identify who is shipping and who will receive the goods (shipper and consignee), be signed by an authorized representative to certify that the shipment complies with the regulations, and include the hazard class/division and packing group to convey the level of danger and packaging requirements. The quantity or number of packages is also essential for risk assessment and verification during transport. These elements together provide clear accountability, enable correct packaging and labeling, and help responders quickly understand the risks. The other options omit one or more of these critical details, or focus on an insufficient single item, which wouldn’t satisfy the regulatory requirements.
