Do You Need a DGSA?

Answer a few quick questions for preliminary guidance. This is not a definitive legal determination — for that, speak to our team.

Question 1 of 3

Does your organisation consign, load, pack, fill or transport Dangerous Goods by road, rail or inland waterway?

Do any exemptions apply — for example, Very small loads, limited/excepted quantities, or very infrequent ancillary transport?

Do your products display hazard warning diamonds (flammable, toxic, corrosive, etc)?

You are likely to require a DGSA

Based on your answers, formal appointment of a Dangerous Goods Safety Adviser is likely to apply to your organisation. Speak to our team for a proper assessment.

Speak to a Consultant

An exemption may apply — but get it confirmed

You may qualify for an exemption, but this should be professionally confirmed rather than assumed. We can review your operation and confirm your position without obligation.

Get Professional Confirmation

You may not require formal appointment

Based on your answers, a formal DGSA appointment may not apply — though staff training duties are likely to remain. We can confirm your obligations.

Alex (IATA)
University of Cambridge

"I have completed two training courses delivered by Keith Harrington of Roadsafe Europe Limited, covering the DGSA Rail module and IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations. Thanks to Keith's excellent instruction, I successfully passed both examinations. Keith is an exceptionally knowledgeable subject matter expert with extensive industry experience, which he draws upon to bring real-world context and practical insight into his training. The courses were well structured, engaging, and delivered in a way that made complex topics easy to understand for learners of all experience levels. I would highly recommend Keith and Roadsafe Europe Limited to anyone seeking high-quality dangerous goods training and professional development.

"I highly recommend Roadsafe for dangerous goods instruction. The training was clear and engaging throughout, with an excellent depth of knowledge shared in a way that was easy to understand and apply. The exam tips were especially valuable and helped me to feel confident and well prepared. Thanks to the quality of the training and support, I have successfully passed the exams on two occasions."
