Middle half 39–46 days · 90% within 55 days · 3,760 shipments measured · volume-weighted across the lanes with at least 20 measured shipments, which carry more than 99% of the shipments · estimated 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
Actual transit (from carrier discharge events)
50days median
Middle half 44–54 days · 90% within 56 days · n = 1,310 shipments with a recorded discharge · volume-weighted across the lanes with at least 20 recorded discharges, which carry more than 99% of the shipments
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.
Schedule slip vs plan
+3days median · after the planned arrival
Middle half +2 to +5 days · n = 244 shipments with both a planned arrival and a recorded discharge on these lanes, across 25 sailings
Per shipment, the day a container was discharged at the port of discharge minus the carrier's first planned arrival there — whole days, exact to within a day either way; negative means ahead of plan. Each shipment is measured against its own plan, so it is a plain count, not weighted by volume. A sailing is one vessel voyage: every container on a late vessel is late together, so the slip is shown only when its shipments came on at least 5 sailings.
On the 244 shipments with both a planned arrival and a recorded discharge on these lanes, across 25 sailings, containers were discharged a median 3 days after the carrier's planned arrival at the port of discharge: the planned date is the carrier's plan as bexy read each Bill of Lading, and those schedules have slipped.
Netherlands ocean freight imports
Median estimated transit is 42 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 39 and 46 days and 90% at 55 days or less, across 3,760 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 more than 99% of the shipments.
Measured from the carrier's container events instead of its estimates, the actual transit to Netherlands — loaded on board to a container discharged at the port of discharge, with no inland leg — has a median of 50 days (middle half 44–54 days, 90% within 56 days) across 1,310 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 more than 99% of the shipments. On the 244 shipments with both a planned arrival and a recorded discharge on these lanes, across 25 sailings, containers were discharged a median 3 days after the carrier's planned arrival at the port of discharge: the planned date is the carrier's plan as bexy read each Bill of Lading, and those schedules have slipped.
Import cargo into Netherlands is mainly discharged at Rotterdam.
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 arrival, for up to 30 days — free, and without an account.

Frequently asked questions
- How long does shipping to Netherlands take?
- The median estimated transit to Netherlands is 42 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 39 and 46 days and 90% at 55 days or less, across 3,760 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 more than 99% of the shipments.
- How long does shipping to Netherlands actually take?
- The median actual transit to Netherlands is 50 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 44 and 54 days and 90% took 56 days or less, across 1,310 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 more than 99% of the shipments. On the 244 shipments with both a planned arrival and a recorded discharge on these lanes, across 25 sailings, containers were discharged a median 3 days after the carrier's planned arrival at the port of discharge: the planned date is the carrier's plan as bexy read each Bill of Lading, and those schedules have slipped.
