In view of the great differences in the contents of shipping marks and numbers, some of which are too complicated to meet the needs of the increase of freight volume, the change of transportation mode and the application of computers in transportation and document circulation, the Working Group on Simplifying International Trade Procedures of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, with the support of the International Organization for Standardization and the International Association for the Coordination of Cargo Handling, has formulated the Shipping Marks and Numbers, which is recommended to all countries.
The role of marks and numbers
