How to read a Swire Shipping bill of lading number
A bill of lading number identifies the transport document, not the box: it usually starts with the carrier’s four-letter code (its SCAC) — followed by the document number.
You’ll find it top-right on the B/L or sea waybill. It’s different from the container number (which identifies the physical box and can cover several containers on one B/L) and from your booking reference — if one identifier returns nothing, try the other on the carrier’s page.
If your Swire Shipping tracking isn’t working
-
1 Check the number format first
Bill-of-lading numbers start with the carrier’s letter code followed by the document number. Make sure you’re using the B/L number, not the container number or the booking reference — they’re three different identifiers on the same paperwork.
-
2 Make sure the number was issued by this carrier
If your shipment was booked through a freight forwarder or NVOCC, the number on your paperwork may be the forwarder’s own reference, which Swire Shipping’s system won’t recognise. Ask the party that issued your documents which carrier number to use — or paste the number on our homepage and let the prefix detector identify the issuer.
-
3 Too early or too late
New shipments can take a little while to appear — most carriers only start returning results once the bill of lading is in their system after export gate-in or acceptance. Long-delivered shipments drop out too: tracking data is usually purged weeks or months after delivery.
-
4 Still nothing?
Your booking agent or Swire Shipping’s customer service can look the shipment up internally — have the bill of lading number and the issuing office or booking reference handy when you ask.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I track a Swire Shipping bill of lading?
- Enter your bill of lading number in the box above and select Track. We open Swire Shipping’s official tracking page with your number already applied.
- What does a Swire Shipping bill of lading number look like?
- Bill-of-lading numbers usually start with the carrier’s four-letter code (its SCAC prefix) followed by the document number — for example COSU6285551440.
- Can I bookmark or share my Swire Shipping tracking link?
- Yes — Swire Shipping accepts the bill of lading number in the page address, so once the tracking page opens you can bookmark it or send the link to a colleague and it will show the same shipment.
- Is this Swire Shipping’s official tracking site?
- No — this is an independent directory of official carrier tracking pages. We keep a verified link to Swire Shipping’s own tracking page and send you there; the tracking data you see comes directly from Swire Shipping, and we never see or store it.
