How to track a Yusen Logistics container

Every Yusen Logistics box carries an ISO 6346 number: four letters (the owner prefix), six digits and a check digit. Yusen Logistics prefixes include YLAU and YLJ. Enter the container number, the bill of lading or the booking reference and Navo24 detects which one it is.

Yusen Logistics is a forwarder or NVOCC, so the box usually moves on another line's vessel. Tracking by the Yusen Logistics bill of lading still works: we follow the underlying carrier and show one timeline.
