Maersk Container Tracking: Status and ETA

Track a Maersk shipment using its shipment or container number, then check the event location and whether each date is estimated or actual. Use this guide for a single lookup or to start monitoring shipments in CargoFlowPlus.

Check with Maersk

Open Maersk tracking

External carrier website. CargoFlowPlus tracking starts separately inside your account.

How to check a Maersk shipment

Open Maersk Tracking, enter the shipment or container number and select Track. Maersk’s support guide describes these two lookup options. Use the reference from your shipment documents and check that the returned journey matches your cargo.

Read the event before using the date

Check which port and transport leg the update refers to. An estimated arrival is a plan; an actual arrival or discharge is a reported event. A vessel schedule alone does not confirm that your container has been loaded or discharged.

Tracking and release are separate checks

A discharge event records unloading at a location. Before arranging collection, confirm the applicable cargo release and terminal requirements with the carrier, terminal or your agent. A tracking milestone alone is not a collection authorization.

If the reference returns no useful update

Compare the entered reference with your current shipment documents. Ask your booking party to confirm the carrier reference if you only have an internal order number. If the journey or event history still does not match, contact Maersk with the reference and the specific missing event.

How CargoFlowPlus handles it

  1. Add your Maersk reference: Create a CargoFlowPlus account, choose the carrier and enter the reference using the available input type. Confirm the request inside your account to start tracking.
  2. Review the returned shipment data: Check the route, reported milestones and ETA. Availability depends on your reference and route; the carrier website may offer information that is not available in CargoFlowPlus.
  3. Follow the shipment in your workspace: Review shipment updates alongside the rest of your workload. Use carrier and terminal confirmation for release and collection requirements.

Is this the official Maersk tracking page?

No. This is a CargoFlowPlus guide. Use the official Maersk link on this page for the carrier’s own tracking service. CargoFlowPlus provides a separate shipment monitoring workspace.

Does an ETA in the past mean my container has arrived?

No. An estimated time is not a completed event. Check for an actual arrival or discharge at the relevant destination and review the latest shipment update.

Can I check coverage before committing?

The CargoFlowPlus trial includes 30 days and 10 live shipments. Use your own references to check the available events and route coverage; it is not a promise that every carrier field or terminal update is available.
