How do I know the container belongs to Turkon Line?
A container number is 4 letters and 7 digits, like TRKU 123456 7. The 4 letters are the owner code, and Turkon Line containers usually start with:
TRKUWhere do I find the number?
The container number is on the bill of lading and the shipping advice from your supplier or forwarder, and on the container door itself. For a consolidated (LCL) shipment, ask the consolidator for the container number or the master bill of lading, because house bills cannot be tracked with the carrier.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a shipment take to Jeddah with Turkon Line?
It depends on the loading port, the service and transshipment ports. The carrier's tracking page shows the latest arrival date, which changes if the vessel is delayed.
What is the difference between a container number and a B/L number?
The container number identifies the container (4 letters and 7 digits). The bill of lading covers the whole shipment and can include several containers. Both work for tracking.
Why doesn't my number show on the Turkon Line website?
Usually the shipment is new and not yet registered with the carrier, or a letter or digit is wrong. Check the number with your supplier and try again the next day.
