Yang Ming'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.
