CMA CGM container number format

CMA CGM container numbers follow the ISO 6346 standard — four letters (an owner prefix ending in U) followed by seven digits, for example CMAU1234567. Containers operated by CMA CGM commonly carry these prefixes:

Prefix	Operator
CMAU	CMA CGM
CGMU	CMA CGM
CXDU	CMA CGM

Other prefixes can also appear when CMA CGM carries leased or slot-shared equipment.
