Where can I get a Material Safety Data Sheet for iPad 1's battery? I forgot my iPad in a hotel in the US, and the shipping company won't ship without this MSDS document... Please help!!!

same question. I left iPad 2 at hotel in China and cannot get shipped without MSDS. Support not a help, neither has online search turned up MSDS. List on web does not contain iPad 1 or 2 with battery information.
This makes no sense. FedEx, UPS and others deliver iPhones and iPads by the thousands every single day without anyone providing a MSDS. You ship your device for repairs to Apple without an MSDS. I've returned other lithium polymer battery powered consumer electronics to companies without an MSDS. if you factor in other cell phones, laptops, tablets, game controllers etc etc, then shippers are handling millions of such devices every day to, and from consumers without ever asking for an MSDS.
Something doesn't make any sense here. I've never heard of needing an MSDS to ship any consumer electronic device, with any shipper (that includes in my own experience USPS, UPS, Fedex, Airbirne Express, and some local couriers). The only hazardous or toxic material in the device is the lithium polymer battery, and shippers handle lithium polymer battery powered devices by the millions every single day.
The only time I've ever had to provide an MSDS to ship anything, anywhere, has been with scientific research material that either included regulated substances or substances not considered normally encountered shipping material by the courier. Shipping everyday consumer products does not require an MSDS.

You will need to contact Apple for that information. Click the "Contact Us" button at the bottom of this page.

I did, but some of people I talked to had no idea what MSDS was, and I had advise them to google it... Anyways, after more than 60 minutes of telephone conversations with Apple Support (in total), I was told that no MSDS has ever been issued for iPad batteries. And this is very odd since other brands, like Dell and HP, have MSDS for the batteries in their laptops. Radioshak has even one for batteries in a remote controls... Very frustrating!
@Ulvia: i am having the same problem, trying to send my ipad to my wife in the States(currently in Korea) Did u or were you able to get the MSDS to send out your ipad???
Unfortunately not... I had to find a person, who would agree to bring my iPad to me from the US. You might want contact Apple regarding this. Maybe they have issued the document after all...
😟 thank you so much for your help !!
