EVA Air, together with Evergreen Airline Services and Evergreen Air Cargo Services, has been certified the Center of Excellence for Independent Validators (CEIV) Lithium Batteries certification by the International Air Transport Association (IATA).

This recognition makes EVA Air the first airline in Taiwan to achieve dual certification for passenger and cargo operations, highlighting its professional expertise and operational excellence across both sectors. It also shows the airline’s steadfast commitment to aviation safety.

With the growing use of lithium batteries and the rapid expansion of e-commerce, the demand for their transportation has increased significantly in air cargo shipments and passenger luggage.

Prioritizing safety, EVA Air and its affiliate companies have adopted stringent standards encompassing training, self- audit, risk management, and quality control. These measures ensure compliance with international regulations, mitigate transportation risks and enhance the reliability of lithium battery shipments.

This certification covers all aspects of passenger, cargo, and ground handling operations. For passenger service, it includes stringent luggage checks, emergency response training for pilots and cabin crew, and advanced fire suppression systems on aircraft. On the cargo side, it reinforces the storage, handling, and transportation of lithium battery shipments. All operational processes adhere to IATA’s highest safety standards to ensure the secure transport of cargo and luggage.

EVA Air achieved CEIV Lithium Batteries certification with a “zero-defect” standard. Building on its successful CEIV Pharma certifications in 2021 and 2024, the airline has become the first in Taiwan to obtain dual certifications for lithium batteries and pharmaceutical cold chain operations.

These achievements further enhance EVA Air’s expertise in passenger and cargo services, setting a new benchmark for the industry.

Guided by its core principles of “Safety, Service, and Sustainability,” EVA Air integrates its “zero accident” safety goal into the mindset of every employee.

The airline continues to innovate and refine its operations, providing passengers with a safe and comfortable travel experience while offering cargo customers unparalleled security and service quality.

EVA Air remains dedicated to building a trusted and sustainable brand, leading the way as a global aviation benchmark.
