Looks like you found an IATA, Big G

In which case, when you look up the UN number, you'll find cross-references that will take you to sections that will tell you what sort of packaging and labeling is required, and whether specific shippers (UPS, DHL, FEDEX, etc) or countries of origin, destination, or transit have any additional restrictions or requirements.

Then there are separate forms that have to be filled out for ground vs air shipment (49 CFR bill of lading vs Declaration of Hazardous Goods - HAZDEC).

It's painful, sorry.
