Prefix
NSSU
Owner or operator
Namsung Shipping

The four-letter prefix NSSU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Namsung Shipping.

A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.

Use the CargoEnter container validator to check the number structure before starting shipment tracking.

NSSU container number format

A container number starting with NSSU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example NSSU1234567.

Who uses NSSU containers

NSSU is registered to Namsung Shipping. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
