STARLUX Airlines continues to lead the Taiwanese aviation industry by becoming the first Taiwanese carrier to obtain four IATA CEIV certifications.
The airline previously received certifications for CEIV Lithium Batteries, CEIV Pharma, and CEIV Fresh, and has now been awarded the CEIV Live Animals certification.
This milestone reflects STARLUX’s commitment to providing specialized cargo services with professional standards and facilities.
Glenn Chai, STARLUX CEO said: “Transporting live animals is an exceptionally specialized and challenging task. It requires strict adherence to international standards while ensuring animal safety and welfare.
“We are honoured to receive the IATA CEIV Live Animals certification. This recognition affirms our expertise in handling special cargo and demonstrates that our transport processes and team training meet global standards.
“We will continue to enhance our capabilities and service details to provide trustworthy solutions for customers who require premium logistics support.”

To comply with these standards, STARLUX has upgraded its transport facilities, implemented comprehensive risk assessment and contingency protocols, and provided in-depth employee training to its employees on animal welfare, emergency response, and international regulations…
