SriLankan Cargo, the air freight division of SriLankan Airlines, has become the first airline in South Asia to earn the Center of Excellence for Independent Validators (CEIV) for Live Animals Logistics Certification from the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
The certification, recognized globally as the premium standard for air transport of live animals, ensures humane, safe, and stress-free conditions for pets, livestock, and conservation animals across the airline’s worldwide network.
Chaminda Perera, Head of Cargo at SriLankan Airlines, said, “Earning the IATA CEIV Live Animals Certification underscores our dedication to animal welfare and operational excellence, ensuring safer handling, trained teams and peace of mind for our customers.”
