Transport processes in dense stellar plasmas which are relevant to the interiors of white dwarfs and neutron stars are reviewed. The emphasis is placed on the accuracy of the numerical results. In this review we report on the electrical conductivity and the thermal conductivity of dense matter. The methods of the calculations are different for the liquid metal phase and the crystalline lattice phase. We will broadly review the current status of the calculations of the transport properties of dense matter, and try to give the best instructions available at the present time to the readers.
