WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DON'T COMPLY
Non-Compliance with the IATA 30% SoC rule can lead to:
- Civil penalties in the six-figure range per violation, per day
- Airlines rejecting or confiscating shipments
- Suspension of dangerous-goods shipping priveleges
- Regulatory investigations and possible criminal liability
- Reputational damage and customer trust issues
WHY 30% SOC IS BEST FOR AIR SHIPPING
ABOVE 30%
- Non-compliant with 2026 air-shipping rules
- Risk of shipment rejection and heavy fines
- Creates regulatory, safety, and liability risks
BELOW 30%
- Risk of over-discharge
- Batteries may arrive dead or unusable
- Leads to warranty returns and customer frustration
NEAR 30%
- Compliant, safe, and auditable
- Accepted by regulators and carriers
- Prevents dead batteries and ensures customer confidence
