Wan Hai Container Tracking: A Step-by-Step Guide
Wan Hai Lines is a well-established container carrier based in Taipei, Taiwan. The company operates a fleet of more than 140 vessels and serves over 60 countries across Asia, the Middle East, and the Americas. One of our partners recently tracked a time-sensitive shipment from Jakarta to Los Angeles using GoComet. Thanks to live updates, they were able to reroute ground logistics just in time for delivery.
Tracking is a vital part of container shipping. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to track Wan Hai containers using basic shipment identifiers and explain why GoComet’s platform gives you a stronger edge than the official Wan Hai tracker.
How to Track Wan Hai Containers
You don’t need to create an account or install anything to get started:
Step 1: Open the Tracking Page for Wan Hai Containers

Step 2: Input Your Shipment Details
You can track using:
- Container number (e.g., WHLU1234567)
