SITC Cargo Tracking Scraper

What does SITC Cargo Tracking Scraper do?

SITC Cargo Tracking Scraper is an Apify actor that extracts real-time shipment tracking data from SITC (SITC International Holdings), the leading intra-Asia container shipping and logistics carrier. Simply enter your tracking numbers — container numbers or B/L (Bill of Lading) numbers — and the scraper returns structured shipment data ready for analysis or integration.

No coding experience is needed. Paste your numbers, click Start, and download the results in JSON, CSV, Excel, or other formats.

Why scrape SITC shipment data?

Manually checking the SITC website for container tracking updates is time-consuming, especially when managing multiple shipments across Asia's busy trade lanes. This actor automates SITC cargo tracking so you can:

• 📦 Monitor shipment status — Get real-time container movements, ports, vessels and status updates
• 🔄 Track in bulk — Track hundreds of containers or B/L numbers in a single run
• 📊 Feed data into dashboards — Export structured tracking data to Google Sheets, Slack, email, or your own systems via Apify integrations
• ⏰ Set up automated tracking — Schedule periodic runs to monitor shipment progress without manual checks
• 🔗 Build logistics pipelines — Use the Apify API to integrate SITC tracking data into your supply chain management tools

What data can you extract from SITC?

The scraper extracts the following data points from SITC's tracking system:

Data Field	Description	Availability
Tracking Number	The number you submitted	Always
Tracking Type	Detected number type (Container or BillOfLading)	Always
Port of Load / Discharge	Loading and discharge ports	B/L lookups
Vessel Schedule	Each leg of the voyage — vessel, voyage, from/to ports, ETD/ETA and actual ATD/ATA	B/L lookups
Container Number(s)	Every container behind the number (a B/L can carry several)	Always
Seal / Type / Size / Weight	Seal number, ISO type, size and gross weight for each container	B/L lookups
Current Status & Port	Latest movement status and location for each container	Always
Movement Events	Each event per container — pick-up, gate-in, loaded, discharged, returned — with date, port, description and (where applicable) vessel/voyage	Always

SITC Cargo Tracking Scraper output example

Each tracked number produces one structured item in the dataset, with every container behind it and its full movement history. Here is a shortened example:

{
  "tracking_number": "SITGWUDAG17712",
  "tracking_type": "BillOfLading",
  "port_of_load": "SHANGHAI",
  "port_of_discharge": "DA NANG",
  "vessel_schedule": [
    {
      "vessel": "MENG FU HAO",
      "voyage": "L2614",
      "from": "WUHAN",
      "to": "SHANGHAI",
      "etd": "2026-07-29 00:00",
      "eta": "2026-08-05 00:00",
      "atd": "2026-07-29 17:08",
      "ata": "2026-08-02 16:04"
    }
  ],
  "containers": [
    {
      "containerNumber": "SEGU6624580",
      "sealNo": "SITF983172",
      "containerType": "40HC",
      "quantity": 21,
      "size": 67.536,
      "weight": 7670.88,
      "currentPort": "DA NANG",
      "current_status": "EMPTY CONTAINER RETURN/GATE-IN",
      "events": [
        { "date": "2026-07-26", "port": "wuhan", "code": "OP", "description": "outbound pickup", "vessel": "", "voyage": "" },
        { "date": "2026-07-29", "port": "wuhan", "code": "VL", "description": "loaded onto vessel", "vessel": "", "voyage": "" },
        { "date": "2026-09-11", "port": "da nang", "code": "MT", "description": "empty container return/gate-in", "vessel": "", "voyage": "" }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

The actual output includes every container on the shipment with the full movement history. The example above is shortened for clarity. You can download the complete dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel, and other formats from the Output tab.

Frequently asked questions

Is it legal to scrape SITC?

Our scrapers are ethical and do not extract any private user data. They only extract publicly available shipment tracking information that any visitor can access on the SITC website. We therefore believe that our scrapers, when used for ethical purposes by Apify users, are safe. However, you should be aware that your results could contain data related to commercial shipments. If you're unsure about your use case, consult your legal team.

Can I track multiple shipments at once?

Yes. Enter as many tracking numbers as you need in the Tracking Numbers field — one per line. The scraper processes them in parallel batches for maximum speed and uses automatic IP rotation to handle rate limits.

What types of tracking numbers are supported?

The scraper accepts two types of numbers through the same field and detects the type automatically:

• Container numbers — ISO 6346 format (4 letters + 7 digits, e.g., SEGU6624580)
• B/L (Bill of Lading) numbers — SITC B/L reference numbers (e.g., SITGWUDAG17712)

A B/L lookup returns the full route, the vessel schedule and every container on the shipment; a container lookup returns that container's movement history with its vessel and voyage.

What if a tracking number is not found?

If a number returns no tracking data from SITC's system, the scraper logs a warning and skips it. You are not charged for numbers that return no results.

How do I get support or report issues?

If you encounter any issues or have questions about the SITC Cargo Tracking Scraper, you can:

• Open an issue on the Issues tab of the actor page
• Reach out to the developer for a custom solution based on your specific tracking needs
