Loaded on board → container discharged at the port of discharge, from the carrier's container events: actual dates, not estimates. It has no inland leg, so it is not directly comparable with the estimate, and it rests on fewer shipments because most Bills of Lading are read after the container has been returned empty.

Ireland ocean freight imports

Median estimated transit is 50 days, measured from the loaded-on-board date to the carrier's ETA at the final place of delivery, or the last planned arrival when the carrier gives none; half of shipments were estimated at between 44 and 59 days and 90% at 66 days or less, across 422 shipments with a usable on-board date and estimated arrival. It weights each lane by its shipment volume, over the lanes with at least 20 measured shipments, which carry 94% of the shipments.

Measured from the carrier's container events instead of its estimates, the actual transit to Ireland — loaded on board to a container discharged at the port of discharge, with no inland leg — has a median of 60 days (middle half 56–66 days, 90% within 66 days) across 60 shipments with a recorded discharge at the port of discharge. It weights each lane by its shipment volume, over the lanes with at least 20 recorded discharges, which carry 94% of the shipments.

Import cargo into Ireland is mainly discharged at Dublin and Cork.

Every shipment on these lanes travels on an Evergreen (EGLV) Bill of Lading and is read from the carrier's own tracking record: vessel, voyage, port milestones and per-container status, re-checked after the estimated arrival (the ETA, or the last planned arrival when there is none) until a status reports the shipment at its final destination, for up to 30 days — free, and without an account.

How long does shipping to Ireland take?
The median estimated transit to Ireland is 50 days, measured from the loaded-on-board date to the carrier's ETA at the final place of delivery, or the last planned arrival when the carrier gives none; half of shipments were estimated at between 44 and 59 days and 90% at 66 days or less, across 422 shipments with a usable on-board date and estimated arrival.

How long does shipping to Ireland actually take?
The median actual transit to Ireland is 60 days, measured from the loaded-on-board date to the day a container was discharged at the port of discharge, as reported in the carrier's container events; half of these shipments took between 56 and 66 days and 90% took 66 days or less, across 60 shipments with a recorded discharge at the port of discharge. Unlike the estimated transit it ends at the port of discharge, with no inland leg, and it rests on fewer shipments: for most Bills of Lading bexy first reads the record after the container has been returned empty, when the discharge is no longer shown. It weights each lane by its shipment volume, over the lanes with at least 20 recorded discharges, which carry 94% of the shipments.
