ONE (Ocean Network Express) container prefixes

Track on ecomm.one-line.com — official ONE (Ocean Network Express) tracker

Full ONE (Ocean Network Express) container tracking guide →

ONEU, MOAU, NYKU, KKFU, KKTU and KLFU are the BIC owner prefixes registered to ONE (Ocean Network Express). A container number that starts with any of them belongs to the ONE (Ocean Network Express) fleet and is tracked free at ecomm.one-line.com. The eleventh character of the number is a check digit; it is worked out below for each prefix.

ONE — Ocean Network Express — is the magenta-liveried 2017 merger of Japan’s three container lines: NYK, MOL and K Line. Overnight it became a top-six carrier operating from Singapore.

The merged fleet never repainted every box, so NYK- and K Line-registered codes still sail under the ONE flag, and the one-line.com tracker answers for all of them.

4 letters + 7 digits, printed on the doors. It is on your bill of lading too.

The answer appears as you type. Nothing is sent anywhere.

Can you see where the ship is?

Not from the container. A standard dry box has no power, no radio and no satellite receiver — it is a steel case with a number painted on it, and it reports nothing about itself. Every position you see against a ONE (Ocean Network Express) shipment was reported by something else: a terminal crane, a gate reader, or the ship.

A live map on a carrier’s tracking page is almost always plotting AIS, the transponder every large vessel broadcasts with its position, course and speed. That is genuinely useful at sea: it is a real position rather than a schedule, and an ETA recalculated from actual movement. It is also the ship’s position, not your box’s, and the two part company the moment the container is discharged.

On land the map goes quiet. Between the gate-out and the delivery there is no vessel to follow, and the road leg appears only as whatever events the terminal and the trucker report. A container sitting on a chassis in a yard shows the last position of a ship it left days ago. Only specialised IoT equipment reports its own location, and wherever that exists it is a paid product sold to the shipper, not something a tracking page gives away.

Frequently asked questions

Who owns ONEU, MOAU and NYKU containers?

ONE (Ocean Network Express) does, a shipping line founded in 2017 — the BIC register lists 6 owner prefixes under it: ONEU, MOAU, NYKU, KKFU, KKTU and KLFU.

How do I track a ONEU container?

Free, on the official ONE (Ocean Network Express) tracker at ecomm.one-line.com — paste the full 11-character number; no account is needed. The same tracker serves all 6 ONE (Ocean Network Express) prefixes.

Why does ONE (Ocean Network Express) have 6 prefixes?

Because one prefix holds only a million serial numbers and a fleet outgrows it — and because a line that buys another line keeps the codes painted on the boxes it bought. All 6 are tracked on the same ecomm.one-line.com system.

Is ONEU a shipping line prefix or a leasing prefix?

A shipping line prefix — ONE (Ocean Network Express) both owns the box and moves it, so the owner and the tracker are the same company.

Is ONEU4161669 a valid container number?

Yes — ONEU 416166-9 passes the ISO 6346 check: the weighted sum for ONEU416166 leaves a remainder of 9 when divided by 11, which gives check digit 9. It is an example computed for this page, not a box we have seen.
