United Nations Model Regulations

The United Nations Model Regulations are internationally recognized guidelines that establish standard procedures for handling, packaging, and transporting dangerous goods, such as chemicals and hazardous materials. They aim to ensure safety, prevent accidents, and protect people and the environment during transportation. Countries often adopt these regulations or adapt them into their own laws to create a consistent global approach, facilitating smooth and safe cross-border movement of hazardous substances. Overall, these regulations help manage risks associated with dangerous goods, promoting safety and environmental protection in global trade.
