StatusRequest

With the StatusRequest, the trucking company provides the known and relevant data about the transport to the terminal. The terminal reviews the information received and answers with a StatusInformation message.

The StatusInformation contains information about whether or not

  • the container is recognized,
  • the release number and/or the booking number is recognized and correct,
  • the container has cleared customs , • • the container is ready to be discharged,
  • etc.


If there is an error or discrepancy in the data, this must be corrected and the changes sent to the terminal. If the data is correct and the transport is ready to process, the trucking company can see in the StatusInformation whether the transport can use self-handling or if the trucker needs to go through MVP (manual preliminary inspection / interchange).

Status Description
