Frequently Asked Questions

What vessel types are covered?

Our database covers all commercial vessel types including container ships, tankers, bulk carriers, general cargo, passenger vessels, offshore vessels, and more. We maintain data for vessels with IMO numbers.

How current is the vessel data?

Vessel particulars are updated daily as we receive new information from classification societies, registries, and other authoritative sources. Static vessel characteristics like dimensions rarely change, but we track updates promptly.

Can I combine this with location data?

Yes! Combine vessel particulars with our Vessel Location API for complete vessel intelligence including real-time positions and specifications.

How do I identify a vessel?

Query vessels by IMO number (recommended for unique identification) or MMSI number. IMO numbers provide the most reliable identification as they remain constant throughout a vessel's lifetime.

The Vessel Particulars endpoint has a rate limit of 50 requests per minute. Each request returns comprehensive vessel specifications for a single vessel.
