Track SITC by container number, bill of lading, or booking — live status, vessel position, and ETA in one place.

Example: carrier BL, booking reference, or container number. We normalize spaces, dashes, dots, and slashes automatically.

Supported on this carrier: Bill of Lading

SITC moves ocean containers on intra-Asia loops. Official SCAC: 12PD. Common prefixes include SITU. Use one search box for a container number, bill of lading (BL), or booking.

SITC bill of lading tracking

Use the ocean bill of lading number from your booking confirmation or transport document. BL tracking often covers the full shipment, including multiple containers under the same B/L.

SITC container tracking FAQ

How do I track a SITC container or shipment?
Select SITC, enter a supported tracking number (container, bill of lading, and/or booking depending on this carrier), and submit. ShipmentBeat builds a live timeline from the carrier portal plus AIS and terminal context when available.
Can I track SITC with a bill of lading (BL)?
Yes. Enter the SITC BL number to follow the ocean shipment. BL tracking is often the best choice when multiple containers share one bill of lading.
What is the SCAC for SITC?
SITC uses the SCAC code 12PD. You will see this code on ocean freight documents and in some carrier portals next to the bill of lading or booking.
Which container prefixes does SITC use?
Common SITC container prefixes include SITU. A container number is usually 4 letters plus 7 digits; the first 4 letters are the prefix.
Can I track SITC without a container number?
Yes, when this carrier accepts a bill of lading or booking. Enter the BL or booking above — you do not need a container number to start.
What if my SITC number is not found?
Confirm the carrier and number type, remove spaces or dashes if you typed them, and retry. Public pages only show shipments already known to ShipmentBeat; sign in to add a new tracking request and get notified when the carrier portal responds.

AI-driven scheduling: auto-accelerates near key milestones, down to hourly

No naive fixed-interval polling. The system tunes crawl frequency to each leg's activity and how close it is to a key milestone (departure, arrival, transshipment) — the closer the moment, the more often we check, down to hourly, so rolled cargo, delays, and arrivals surface sooner.

Planned vs Actual Route, on one map

See exactly when a vessel deviates from its planned route. Gray dashed line shows the carrier's official planned path. Blue solid line shows the real AIS trail.

Estimated vs actual: departure, arrival, transit days, and delay at a glance

We freeze the baseline estimated departure/arrival on the first crawl, then reconcile every update: on time or delayed, by how many days, how long in transit — all in one card. Every shipment on the same sailing sees the same baseline, no drift by lookup order. Even when a carrier only reports load/discharge, we backfill real departure/arrival times from sailing schedules wherever possible.

Rolled cargo, skipped ports, vessel swaps — surfaced, not buried

Vessel swaps, skipped port calls, last-minute destination-port changes, big shifts in estimated departure/arrival — we detect these roll and routing risk signals automatically and flag them in red for you, instead of burying them in the timeline.

  • Port skipped· Singapore call dropped
  • Destination changed· Rotterdam → Antwerp

Every ETA, vessel, and voyage change, recorded forever

Every time the carrier updates an ETA, vessel, or voyage, we record the change with a timestamp and can notify your team by email or webhook. Build trust with clients by showing exactly how delivery promises evolved.
