How to track ANA All Nippon Airways shipments
1. Go to the official eSPICA portal at anacargo.jp/en/int/ for air waybill tracking services. 2. Enter your AWB prefix number in the format 205-XXXXXXXX where the last digit is a check digit calculated as the serial number modulo 7 (example: 205-12345675). 3. You will see status updates including booking confirmation, cargo received, cargo manifested, plane departed, plane arrived, and cargo delivered/collected. 4. If tracking is not working online, contact ANA Cargo customer service through their sales representatives or local cargo offices.
What 205-XXXXXXXX means
The AWB prefix 205 specifically identifies ANA All Nippon Airways as the issuing carrier for the air waybill, ensuring the shipment is handled within ANA's cargo network and systems. The 7-digit serial number is the unique shipment identifier assigned by ANA's cargo system. The final digit is a check digit calculated using modulo 7 arithmetic - the 7-digit serial number is divided by 7, and the remainder becomes the check digit (for example, if the serial is 1234567, then 1234567 ÷ 7 = 176366 remainder 5, so the check digit is 5).
