MSC tracking questions
How do I track a MSC container?+
Paste the container number (4 letters and 7 digits) into the free tracker on this page. We check the number and open MSC’s official tracking.
Which container prefixes belong to MSC?+
MSC uses MSCU, MEDU, MSDU, MSMU, MSNU, MSBU. Leased containers (for example TGHU, TCNU, SEGU or CAIU) can also travel on MSC, so the line on your B/L is what counts.
Can I track a MSC shipment by bill of lading or booking number?+
Yes. Paste the B/L or booking number into the tracker on this page and choose MSC tracking. MSC B/L numbers usually start with MEDU.
What do the MSC tracking statuses mean?+
Typical milestones are gate-in (the box entered the load port), loaded on vessel, vessel departure, transhipment, discharge at the destination port and gate-out. In India the box may then move to a CFS or by rail to an ICD before customs clearance.
My MSC container has reached India. What happens next?+
The importer or customs broker files the bill of entry, pays duty and gets out of charge from customs, and the shipping line issues the delivery order. YAM Logistics is a licensed customs broker (licence R-7/92) and can clear it for you: WhatsApp us your container or B/L number.
