Yang Ming Marine Transport, a partly state-owned Taiwanese line founded in Keelung in 1972. Named after the Ming-dynasty philosopher Wang Yang-ming.
Yang Ming Marine Transport Corporation (Yang Ming) was founded in 1972 and is headquartered in Keelung, Taiwan. Its main trade areas: Global, Transpacific, Asia–Europe and Intra-Asia.
Yang Ming is a member of the Premier Alliance, alongside ONE and HMM.
Every Yang Ming box carries an ISO 6346 number: four letters (the owner prefix), six digits and a check digit. Yang Ming prefixes include YMJA, YMJU, YMLU and YMMU. Enter the container number, the bill of lading or the booking reference and Navo24 detects which one it is.
The tracker joins Yang Ming's own events (gate out, loaded, departed, transhipped, discharged) with the vessel's AIS position, so you see where the box is now, not where it was at the last port call.
Before booking, compare Yang Ming sailings by transit time and by real on-time reliability: SchedulesMCP measures actual against scheduled arrivals for every lane Yang Ming serves.
For the price, FreightRatesMCP shows market rates for 20GP, 40GP and 40HC on a port pair. After arrival, demurrage and detention start once Yang Ming's free time runs out; the free-time page lists Yang Ming's published allowances by port, and Navo24 counts the days left on every box.
Yang Ming's Standard Carrier Alpha Code is YMLU. Other codes seen on its documents: YMJU, YMMU, YMPR.
Yang Ming containers use the owner prefixes YMJA, YMJU, YMLU and YMMU, followed by six digits and a check digit.
