Who enforces IATA and IMDG training?
The DOT enforces all hazmat transportation training in the United States. Although air and vessel carriers require training on international rules, where applicable, the U.S. DOT requires training and training records only to comply with 49 CFR training rules. However, in order to do business with many air or vessel carriers, you must comply with any stricter standards in the IATA or IMDG rules. Therefore, it is advisable to make sure that your IATA and IMDG training records meet all applicable standards.
