POT Tracking Number

To access your shipment data, you need the specific reference code assigned to your freight by Palm Overseas Traffic or the underlying ocean/air carrier. You can typically find your POT Tracking Number in the following places:

• Bill of Lading (B/L): The primary legal document and tracking identifier for ocean freight, printed prominently at the top right of the paperwork.
• Booking Reference: An alphanumeric code generated by POT when your cargo space is officially reserved on a vessel or aircraft, usually found on your confirmation email.
• Container Number: If you are shipping a Full Container Load (FCL) or a vehicle, you can track the physical shipping container itself using its dedicated code.
• Air Waybill (AWB): For commercial air freight, this number is located on the flight documentation provided at the time of export.

POT Tracking Number Formats

Our POT Tracking (Palm Overseas Traffic) tool relies on standard maritime and aviation identifiers utilized by the Palm Overseas Traffic system. The formats generally look like this:

• House Bill of Lading (HBL) / Booking Code: Usually an alphanumeric sequence generated specifically by POT’s internal system (e.g., POT1234567 or a similar standardized reference).
• Container Number: The standard ISO identifier for an ocean shipping container consists of a 4-letter owner prefix followed by exactly 7 digits (e.g., TGHU1234567).
• Air Waybill (AWB): The globally recognized 11-digit numeric code assigned by the partner airline for air cargo (e.g., 123-45678901).

POT Delivery Times

Delivery speeds are highly dependent on whether the freight is moving by air or sea, and the specific destination port. Our POT Tracking (Palm Overseas Traffic) tool results will generally reflect these timelines:

• Air Freight: Standard commercial air cargo typically arrives at the destination airport and begins the customs clearance process within 3 to 7 Business Days.
• Sea Freight (USA East Coast / Canada): Ocean transit from Greece to ports like New York or Montreal generally takes 15 to 25 Days on the water.
• Sea Freight (Australia): Long-haul maritime shipping from Greece to Melbourne or Sydney usually requires 35 to 45 Days.

Note: Transit times reflect time in motion. Destination customs clearance, especially for food products like olive oil or personal effects, can add varying amounts of time to the final release.

Solving Common Tracking Issues

Tracking consolidated ocean freight and personal effects involves different logistics than standard courier parcels. Try these troubleshooting steps on our POT Tracking (Palm Overseas Traffic) tool to identify why your status might be missing:

• “Record Not Found”: If you just booked your freight, tracking will not go live until the goods are officially manifested and the container booking is confirmed with the steamship line.
• The Long Ocean Pause: Sea freight tracking does not update daily. Once the status shows the vessel has departed Greece, it will likely remain static for weeks until the ship physically docks at the destination port in North America or Australia.
• Customs Holds: Personal effects, vehicles, and food products are subject to strict customs inspections. You (or your customs broker) will need the physical Bill of Lading and commercial invoices to clear the goods and pay any local duties or terminal handling charges.
• Incorrect Number Format: Ensure you enter the exact B/L, Booking Reference, or Container Number provided by POT without any extra spaces.
