Jerusalem Administrative and Logistics Reference

Jerusalem is included in the database as a location-level port reference. It should not automatically be interpreted as a seaport or container terminal.

Ramallah Inland Logistics Reference

Ramallah is indexed as an inland location reference rather than a conventional seaport. Cargo plans should account for onward road transport and border-related procedures.

Palestinian Territory, Occupied Port Codes

UN/LOCODE references provide standardized location identifiers, but a code alone does not confirm an active berth, terminal concession or current carrier service.

PS Prefix and Three-Character Location Code

Codes beginning with PS identify locations associated with Palestinian Territory, Occupied in the UN/LOCODE system. The three-character suffix identifies the individual location, such as PSGZA for Gaza.

City-Level and Terminal-Level References

A city-level code may represent a broader logistics location, while a terminal-level reference can identify a more specific cargo facility. The three indexed records should therefore be checked against the actual booking and delivery point.

How to Verify a Port Code

Compare the code with the UNECE reference framework and cross-check the latest Ecer Freight port code directory before preparing shipping documents.
