From 1 January 2026, lithium-ion batteries that are packed with equipment and vehicles powered by lithium ion or sodium ion batteries must be offered for air transport with the battery at a reduced state of charge, unless otherwise approved by the relevant tates (A331).S
Some general shipping requirements to transport lithium batteries internationally include: Lithium batteries weighing over 35kg must be approved by the national authority of the shipping and destination country before shipment. Defective or damaged lithium batteries must not be transported.
The aforementioned changes only apply when shipping via carriers that are members of IATA. If a battery is shipped on a non-IATA aircraft, then the DOT Section II equivalent (49CFR173.185 (c) (4) is still a valid exception that can be used when shipping standalone lithium ion or lithium metal/primary cells/batteries.
You will encounter two main types when transporting lithium batteries by air: lithium ion batteries and lithium metal batteries. Lithium ion batteries, often used in consumer electronics like laptops and smartphones, are rechargeable and have a typical energy density of 160–270Wh/kg for NMC Lithium battery and 180–230Wh/kg for LCO Lithium battery.
