Before you start using this service

This page links you to the online dangerous goods database provided by the Department for Transport (DfT).

If you move dangerous goods by road, you must comply with the relevant requirements laid down in the European Agreement Concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (known as ADR) for the specific substance you want to transport.

The database will help you ensure you move dangerous goods safely, securely and within the law. The DfT will further develop this service over the coming months to provide more information and greater functionality.

Please note this service currently covers road transport only.
