DCSA Interface Standard for Track and Trace

Description

The objective of the DCSA Interface Standard for Track and Trace is to standardize the fundamental information provided across the carrier liner domain through track and trace interfaces. The focus is to ensure agreement within the industry on the shared requirements and standards that the industry must follow to streamline inter-operational functionality and data sharing across parties within the industry. This agreement should be further supported by use cases or designated subject areas.

The aim of the DCSA Interface Standard for Track and Trace 3.0 is to ensure that all members and partners in the container shipping industry can base their interfaces on a common understanding of the data and processes of the industry to enable consistency, simplicity, and timeliness in the solutions for tracking and tracing across the industry, supporting the interoperability in container shipping. Hence, the interface elements must remain consistent whether they are built using EDI messaging, interactive UIs, APIs, manual data exchanges, or
any other interface technology.
