HMM tracking by container number
Enter an HMM container number (4 letters and 7 digits, like HDMU1234561). The tool checks it against its check digit, confirms from the prefix that the container is HMM's, and opens HMM's own tracking page, where you see its moves and arrival date. Free, with no sign-up.
4 letters and 7 digits, like HDMU1234561. We don't keep the number or send it anywhere.
How to track an HMM container
- 1
Enter the container number
As it is on the container or the bill of lading, with or without spaces.
- 2
We check the number
The check digit catches copying mistakes, and the prefix shows whether the container is HMM's.
- 3
Open HMM's tracking page
There you see the container's moves, vessel and arrival date. HMM's page also takes the bill of lading or booking number.
HMM container prefixes
The first four letters of a container number name its owner. These are the prefixes registered to HMM:
- HDMU
- HMMU
- KOCU
- SZLU
A container may carry a leasing company's prefix and still sail with HMM: then track it by the bill of lading or booking number on HMM's page.
About HMM
HMM (formerly Hyundai Merchant Marine) is a container shipping line headquartered in Seoul, South Korea.
HMM's tracking pageWhy doesn't my container show on the line's website?
- It's a leased container: the prefix belongs to a leasing company, not the line, so search by bill of lading or booking number.
- The number was copied wrong: check the last digit; the tool tells you the one it expected.
- It hasn't reached the port yet: its moves usually show once the terminal receives it.
- It's on another line: the line on the bill of lading tracks it, and that is not always the container's owner.
