Which documentation is required for this Urine Drug Screen Sample?

• A. None of the above
• B. Air Waybill
• C. Shipper's Declaration
• D. Itemized contents list

Answer: (A)

For this urine drug screen sample, the main idea is that dangerous goods paperwork isn’t needed unless the shipment is regulated as hazardous. A urine drug screen is a clinical specimen and is not treated as a dangerous good in typical shipping, so none of the listed DG documents are required. You wouldn’t need an Air Waybill, a Shipper’s Declaration, or an itemized contents list for this kind of non-hazardous clinical shipment. If, in a different scenario, the specimen were classified as a regulated biological substance (for example, an infectious substance), different documentation would apply.
