26 Dec 2024

Temporary exemption concerning the marking of non-UN cylinders carrying UN 1001 acetylene (dissolved) and UN 3374 acetylene (solvent free), valid until 1 January 2027

This multilateral agreement has been signed by the UK. It gives a temporary exemption allowing acetylene cylinders, that are non-UN pressure receptacles, constructed before 1 July 2023, that are not marked in accordance with 6.2.2.7.3 (k) or (l) applicable from 1 January 2023, to continue to be used.

It is valid until 1 January 2027 unless otherwise revoked.

Anyone carrying dangerous goods in line with a multilateral agreement must have a copy of it on their vehicle.
