RFID cargo shipment tag
definition

read-write tag into which data specific to a containerized cargo shipment can be stored and the tag and the data uploaded in it are the responsibility of the shipper

NOTE The tag can be affixed to the container by the shipper or, as per the shipper’s instructions, by the party that physically performs the loading (“stuffing”) of the container. Data capabilities are flexible and can, at the shipper’s discretion, include destination, routing, conveyance or other transportation information, time and location of the interrogation, cargo information (including hazardous material information, where applicable) or other trip-specific information. The tag must perform reliably from the point of stuffing of the container to delivery destination, and is to be removed by the consignee upon final delivery. The tag is reusable.
