REGU is a container owner code associated with Regional Container Lines. Learn how BIC container prefixes identify equipment owners and operators.

Prefix
REGU
Owner or operator
Regional Container Lines

The four-letter prefix REGU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Regional Container Lines.

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.

REGU container number format

A container number starting with REGU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example REGU1234567.

Who uses REGU containers

REGU is registered to Regional Container Lines. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
