MSC Tracking

If your MSC container shipment is delayed, the first step is to identify the cause. GoComet’s free Port Congestion Tracking Tool allows you to view real-time congestion levels at global ports, helping you understand whether delays are due to port backlogs or vessel traffic. You can also use GoTrack, GoComet’s container tracking software, to check your container’s exact location, transit milestones, and estimated time of arrival. To ensure smooth coordination during disruptions, GoShipment keeps all stakeholders informed with automated task management, live shipment status sharing, and clear accountability. These tools work together to reduce uncertainty, improve communication, and help you respond quickly when your shipment is delayed.

To find an MSC container number, you can use either the Bill of Lading (BL) number or the Booking number. Here's how you can use these options to find the container number:

Bill of Lading (BL) Number:

1. The BL number is a unique identifier assigned to a shipment by the shipping line. It is usually mentioned on the Bill of Lading document.
2. Locate the BL number associated with your shipment.
3. Enter or provide the BL number in the designated search or inquiry field.
4. The system should display the container number associated with that BL number.

Booking Number:

1. The Booking number is a reference number assigned to a particular booking made with the shipping line.
2. Obtain the Booking number related to your shipment.
3. Enter or provide the Booking number in the relevant search or inquiry field.
4. The system should provide you with information on the container number linked to that Booking number.

Correct Format for MSC Container Number: The standard format for an MSC container number is typically a combination of four letters followed by seven digits. For example: MSCU1234567.

Verification: Once you have obtained the container number through the BL or Booking number, you can verify its accuracy by cross-checking the information provided. You can contact our customer service or use the online tracking system to verify the container number. The tracking system will show the current status and location of the container, confirming whether the provided number is correct or not.
