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.

Turkey ocean freight imports

Median estimated transit is 60 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 53 and 71 days and 90% at 80 days or less, across 300 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 99% of the shipments.

Measured from the carrier's container events instead of its estimates, the actual transit to Turkey — loaded on board to a container discharged at the port of discharge, with no inland leg — has a median of 61 days (middle half 56–69 days, 90% within 81 days) across 97 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 99% of the shipments.

Import cargo into Turkey is mainly discharged at Istanbul, Mersin, Izmit and Gebze.

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.

How long does shipping to Turkey actually take?
