Standard Carrier Alpha Codes are issued by the National Motor Freight Traffic Association (NMFTA) in North America. Any company doing business with companies in the USA must use the SCAC when reporting cargo to, or clearing cargo through, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The SCAC is mandatory when reporting cargo/containers to the CBP Automated Manifest System.
US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) uses SCAC to identify an ocean carrier or self-filing party for electronic import customs clearance in their Automated Manifest System.
Swire Shipping uses the SCAC code SSBF for all shipments. This in common across all services, including but not limited to:
- US West Coast to Pacific Islands
- Westwood Services
- Swire Projects shipments
All other Swire Shipping services
If you have concerns over producing the correct SCAC code, please verify with your Swire Shipping agent, as required, at time of booking.
