Ocean Carrier SCAC Codes List

Standard Alpha Carrier Codes (SCACs) are unique identifiers for transportation providers. They originated in the trucking industry and are also commonly used in maritime transportation.

Knowing the SCAC associated with your transportation provider is a useful input when freight tracking, as it can speed up the process of fetching the latest tracking milestones and improve data quality.
