Which statement is true about consignments of two packages or less where each package contains no more than 4 cells or 2 batteries installed in equipment?

• A. The Lithium Battery Mark requirement does not apply
• B. Shipper's Declaration is required
• C. A dangerous goods surcharge applies
• D. No packaging is required

Answer: (A)

For small shipments, there’s an exception that stops the Lithium Battery Mark from being needed. If the whole consignment is two packages or fewer and each package has no more than 4 cells or 2 batteries installed in equipment, the outside marking that warns handlers about lithium batteries isn’t required. This reflects the idea that with such limited quantities, the risk is considered sufficiently low that the additional warning label isn’t necessary. You still must follow other packaging and safety rules for lithium batteries, but the specific mark isn’t required under this limit.
