Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the official Jebel Ali average dwell time?
This page doesn't publish an official port average. The figure at the top is the average for containers tracked with this tool, which is a sample. For official performance data, refer to DP World.
How is container dwell time calculated?
Dwell time is measured from the exact timestamp of vessel discharge (Landed / Storage Start) until the container successfully passes through the port terminal gate onto a haulier truck (Gate Out / To Town).
How can freight forwarders prevent demurrage and storage penalties?
Check the arrival (discharge) date as soon as the container lands, get the delivery order and customs declaration ready before then, and book the e-token inside free time. Each result in the tracking workspace shows the free-time expiry date.
