Abbreviations

The freight forwarding and logistics industry has a language of its own — full of acronyms covering ocean and air freight, customs, biosecurity, surcharges and commercial documentation. To make life easier for our clients, we've put together a quick reference guide to the most common abbreviations you'll come across when working with Noble Freight Services and the wider supply chain.

If you come across a term that isn't listed here or you'd like a fuller explanation in the context of your shipment, please get in touch — our team are always happy to help.
