Dangerous goodsIMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

German imports follow EU REACH and CLP. A substance arriving at 1 tonne or more per year must be registered by the EU importer or by an Only Representative acting for the Indian manufacturer, and labels and SDS must be in German. Medicinal active substances require GMP compliance and an EU written confirmation, with the competent Länder authorities and BfArM overseeing authorised importers. Dangerous goods must be packed and declared under IMDG or IATA DGR, and customs needs the importer's EORI number.

Questions

Inorganics & Metals for Germany

Do you ship inorganics & metals to Germany?
Yes. We ship by sea to Hamburg and Bremerhaven, by air cargo or by express courier depending on quantity and urgency. Every lot carries a COA and a 16-section GHS SDS.
Which documents come with a inorganics & metals shipment to Germany?
Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to ECHA (EU REACH & CLP) is agreed with you at quote stage.
How long does delivery to Germany take?
Allow 24–30 days for ocean transit or 3–5 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.
What does 'trace metals basis' mean on an inorganic product?
It means the stated purity is calculated from the measured levels of metallic impurities, usually by ICP-MS or ICP-OES, rather than from a direct assay of the main component. Non-metallic impurities such as oxygen, carbon or moisture may not be included. Check the COA to see which elements were tested and their limits.
Can metals be cut or sized to my drawing?
Many foils, rods, plates and targets can be supplied in custom dimensions, thicknesses or diameters. Send a drawing or the key measurements with the tolerance you need. We will confirm feasibility, lead time and the purity available in that form before quoting, since some shapes are only made from certain grades.
