Prefix
YATU
Owner or operator
Yateem Oxygen

The four-letter prefix YATU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Yateem Oxygen.

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.
