Transit Time & Port To Port Shipping
International freight can be complicated, especially when you need to choose between different ports. Our international freight shipping transit time page helps by giving estimated shipping time for blended inland trucking and ocean freight, to give a comprehensive freight shipping time estimate. Terminal lead times empowers you to make informed decisions, optimize your logistics planning, and ensure timely delivery of your goods to their intended destinations.
Transit time is how long it takes for a shipment to be delivered to its final destination after being picked up from a designated pick-up point. The amount of time needed to move goods from one point to another varies widely, so it’s important to get this information before booking a shipment.

Why is there such a wide range in shipment duration when shipping by sea? Because there are a lot of ways to ship. Seriously.
When it comes to transit time between ports, there are about 107,000 different UN Codes for Trade and Transport Locations (UN/LOCODE) for different shipping destinations. This means you’ll see a lot of variance. For example, shipping time for an ocean shipment from Shenzhen, China, to Miami, Florida through the Suez Canal takes 41 days while the (more expensive) Panama Canal takes only 35 days.
Use our Seaport Code Finder to find Locodes, port Names, and seaport codes for international seaports.

A VIN, or Vehicle Identification Number, is a unique set of 17 characters assigned to each and every vehicle. A VIN is the most reliable way to identify an exact car, commercial vehicle, bus, truck or even trailer.
Manufacturers use customized VINs to encode (or “attach”) some important information about that particular vehicle in it. The most common practice is encoding the name of the manufacturer, model, and technical specifications in the VIN.
However, Vehicle Identification Numbers are also used by repair services and law enforcement to record maintenance, inspection, damage, theft, and more. This makes it possible to retrieve important facts from the history of the car.
A VIN can be found on the body of a vehicle or in its documents.
The exact location of the VIN differs from model to model, but it is typically located on the bottom-right corner of the windshield, in the engine compartment or on the lower part of the “B pillar”.
In some cases, the VIN is engraved next to the spare wheel, on the floor panel below driver’s feet or even on the bonnet. Manufacturers usually place the VIN in 2-3 different locations.
You can confirm a Vehicle Identification Number by checking the field “E” of the European registration certificate.
