API

This API enables you to retreive all your valid agreements, associated products, their charges including details and terms and conditions.

The Bookings API consists of several components / API endpoints relevant for this service. Customers are able to query available booking offers for a specific product (combination of POL, POD, commodity, equipment type, etc.). By providing an agreement number, the customer can also send a booking request. The booking request will be directly forwarded to the HSDG booking system.

The term "Point-to-Point schedule" is used to denote a variety of options for a shipment from a user defined starting point to a user defined destination point within a user defined timeframe. The API returns schedule information that represents the best set of transport plans from a customer point of view.

This API returns the vessel schedule including all port calls for a given IMO number, voyage number and direction.

To get started with the use or our APIs, please contact your local Hamburg Süd branch.
