Track your RCL container

Track your RCL (RCLU) container in real time with TrackingMCP — live carrier events, the vessel's position, a predicted ETA, and automatic demurrage & detention alerts. Works by container number, bill of lading, or booking number, with no RCL portal login.

How to track your RCL container

1. Find your RCL container number, bill of lading, or booking number (on your booking confirmation or invoice).
2. Enter it in TrackingMCP — it resolves the RCL shipment automatically.
3. See the live, DCSA-aligned event timeline, the vessel's AIS position, the predicted ETA, and a demurrage & detention countdown.

RCL container number format

RCL container numbers follow the ISO 6346 standard — four letters (an owner prefix ending in U) followed by seven digits, for example RCLU1234567. Containers operated by RCL commonly carry these prefixes:

What you'll see when tracking RCL

• Carrier events — gate-in, loaded, vessel departure, transshipment, arrival, discharge, gate-out — normalized to the DCSA Track & Trace model.
• Vessel position — live AIS for the ship carrying your box.
• Predicted ETA — based on the carrier's schedule and observed delays.
• Demurrage & detention — a free-time countdown with automatic alerts.

RCL demurrage & detention

Every RCL import container has a free-time clock — the calendar days before demurrage & detention charges begin. Look up RCL's published free days on the free-time reference →, and let TrackingMCP alert you before the clock runs out.
