The new centralized DG Validation team takes care for worldwide bookings of dangerous goods on Hapag-Lloyd vessels and on partner line vessels where Hapag-Lloyd containers are loaded. DG Validation consists of checking booking data for legal compliance with all international, national, local and port regulations, as well as vessel and shipping line restrictions.
