A new level of convenience and sophistication has been introduced to keeping track of containerised cargo by Colombo International Container Terminals (CICT) with the launch of a mobile app for the purpose.

A first for Sri Lanka’s port industry, CICT’s ‘eZPort’ app for smartphone users can be downloaded free from the App Store or Android Play store, and enables users to access key information pertaining to the despatch and arrival of containers from and to the CICT-managed South Terminal of the Port of Colombo.

CICT eZPort is the IT-facilitated customer service developed by CMHIT. In its first phase, the new app provides information such as Vessel Schedule which includes detailed information such as vessel name and voyage, Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA), Estimated Time of Berth (ETB) and Estimated Time of Completion (ETC); Full Container Load (FCL) opening time; details of nominated container; status and position of the truck; demurrage and storage charges due and Equipment Interchange Receipt (EIR) details.
