Prefix
YSCU
Owner or operator
Yanghai Shipping Co Ltd

The four-letter prefix YSCU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Yanghai Shipping Co Ltd.

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.

YSCU container number format

A container number starting with YSCU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example YSCU1234567.

Who uses YSCU containers

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