Definition

Alphanumeric key that uniquely identifies the classification code.

The classification code appears in table 3.3 (column 3b) in the restructured dangerous goods regulations ADR, ADNR, RID, and IMDG. It is used to explain the dangerous goods properties of the UN-listed substances listed.

The exact meaning of the classification code is different depending on the dangerous goods class and can, for example, be found at the following points in the ADR regulation:

  • Class 1: Chapter 2.2.1.1.4

    If you want to map class 1 dangerous goods in the system, you can use the Classification code field to specify the Compatibility group. The compatibility group is used in particular for mixed loading determinations within class 1. In the ADR regulation, 13 compatibility groups are defined. For more information, see Chapter 2.2.1.1.6.

  • Class 2: Chapter 2.2.2.1.2 and 2.2.2.1.3
  • Class 3, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2, 8, and 9: Chapter 2.2.x.1.2; where x is the class without a decimal point.
  • Dangerous goods of class 7 do not have a classification code
