Shipper Owned Containers (SOC)
SOC shipments - between box owners and vessel owners
SOC shipment happens when the box owner books space with other vessel owners. For example Trans Asia Line booked spaces with Sea Consortium (Sea Consortium is solely operating SOC shipments only - no COC). In this case Sea Consortium will provide the infomation of container discharging list and vessel arrival notice (no BL number)while Trans Asia Line will be the receiver of Bill of Lading (BL) for Delivery Order (DO) collection.
Another example, SOC shipment between CMA and Trans Asia Line. In this case, Trans Asia Line books space with CMA but using own container. CMA will have meo BL where the consignee is under Trans Asia Line. Therefore different shipping agents will have differenc procedures.

ZB (Zone Bebas) Declaration
ZB1 and ZB2
ZB 1 - for taking the container into free zone after container discharges in the port
ZB 2 - for loading the container onto the vessel which means out from the free zone
ZB 1 and ZB 2 are declared by the forwarding agent. ZB 1 and ZB 2 take place because:
1) Save on duty on dutiable products due to container does not truck out from port
2) First box owner (liner) does not offer service to the destination country
Hassles of declaring ZB 1 and ZB2 (comparing with ZB3):
1) Need to change container
2) Forwarding agent has to declare the custom forms
3) 2 BLs needed - one is issued at the loading port, and another is at the final discharging port
ZB3
ZB3 - for transhipment purpose, for exporting container to destination country
ZB3 is declared by the box owner (liner). It take place if:
1) Box owner (liner) offers service to the destination port
Benefits of ZB3:
1) Only one ZB needed to be declared for transhipment purpose
2) One BL shows loading port's shipper and consignee at the final destination
3) No need to change container but using the same container all the time

- first BL indicates the shipper at loading port and the consignee at transhipment port while second BL indicates the shipper at transhipment port and the consignee in final destination's port.
