Lithium Battery Shipping Pre-Check from China — Compliance Workflow

Important: This page documents an operational workflow example. It represents a pre-shipment review and compliance process — it does not represent a completed or delivered shipment case.

What This Record Shows

This record demonstrates how XCJD Logistics handles a lithium battery shipping inquiry from China:

• Pre-shipment review — the first step is always compliance, never a price
• Documentation check — UN number, UN38.3 test summary, SDS/MSDS and battery capacity are confirmed before any route evaluation
• Channel assessment — air vs sea is evaluated only after compliance is confirmed
• Compliance-first workflow — no quotation, transit or duty guarantees are given before the pre-check is complete

Why Compliance Comes First

Battery cargo fails at the airline or vessel when documents are missing, outdated or misclassified. A compliant pre-check before quotation is what turns an inquiry into a shippable, predictable shipment.

The Workflow

1. Collect battery type, UN number, UN38.3 test summary, SDS/MSDS and capacity
2. Review packaging requirements
3. Assess the channel (air subject to carrier approval; sea DDP under IMDG rules)
4. Confirm shippability before any quotation
5. Quote only after compliance confirmation

What This Does NOT Claim

• This is not a delivered shipment case
• This is not a successful shipment claim
• No weights, transit times or prices are implied
