27、International Standard provides a system for the identification and presentation of information about freight containers. The identification system is intended for general application, for example in documentation, control and communications (including automatic data processing systems), as well as
28、for display on the containers themselves. The methods of displaying identification and certain other data (including operational data) on containers by means of permanent marks are included. 1.2 This International Standard specifies: a) a container identification system, with an associated system fo
29、r verifying the accuracy of its use, having: mandatory marks for the presentation of the identification system for visual interpretation, and features to be used in optional Automatic Equipment Identification (AEI) and electronic data interchange (EDI); b) a coding system for data on container size
30、and type, with corresponding marks for their display; c) operational marks, both mandatory and optional; d) physical presentation of marks on the container. 1.3 The terms “mandatory” and “optional” in this International Standard are used to differentiate those ISO marking provisions which shall nece
31、ssarily be fulfilled by all containers from those which are not required of all containers. The optional marks are included to further comprehension and promote uniform application of the optional mark. If a choice has been made to display an optional mark, the provisions laid down in this Internati
32、onal Standard relating to the mark shall be applied. The terms “mandatory” and “optional” do not refer to requirements of any regulatory body. 1.4 This International Standard applies to all freight containers covered by International Standards ISO 668, parts 1 to 5 of ISO 1496, ISO 8323 and should,
33、wherever appropriate and practicable, be applied: to containers other than those covered by the International Standards mentioned in clause 2; to container-related and/or detachable equipment. NOTE 1Containers marked according to previous editions of ISO 6346 need not be re-marked. 1.5 This Internat
34、ional Standard does not cover temporary operational marks of any kind, permanent marks, data plates, etc. which may be required by intergovernmental agreements, national legislation or nongovernmental organizations other than ISO. NOTE 2Some of the major international conventions whose container-mar
35、king requirements are not covered in this International Standard are as follows: International Convention for Safe Containers (UN/IMO 1992); Customs Convention on Containers 1956 and 1972; Customs Convention on International Movement of Goods under Cover of TIR Carnets (TIR Convention) 1959 and 1975
36、. It should not be assumed that this list is exhaustive. This International Standard does not cover the display of technical data on tank containers (see ISO 1496-3), nor does it, in any way, include identification marks or safety signs for items of cargo which may be carried in freight containers.

43、 code: three letters; equipment category identifier: one letter; serial number: six numerals; check digit: one numeral. 3.1.1 Owner code The container owners code shall consist of three capital letters, shall be unique and shall be registered with the International Container Bureau (BIC Bureau Inter
44、national des Conteneurs), either through an affiliated national registration organization (see Annex G) or directly with: Bureau International des Conteneurs 167, rue de Courcelles 75017 Paris FRANCE 3.1.2 Equipment category identifier The equipment category identifier consists of one capital letter
45、 of the Latin alphabet as follows: U for all freight containers; J for detachable freight container-related equipment; Z for trailers and chassis. 3.1.3 Serial number The container serial number shall consist of six Arabic numerals. If the series of significant numerals does not total six, they shal
46、l be preceded by sufficient zeroes to make up six numerals. (For example, if the series of significant numerals is 1234, the serial number is 001234.) 3.1.4 Check digit The check digit provides a means of validating the transmission accuracy of the owner code and serial number and shall be determine
47、d as in Annex A. The check digit shall validate the owner code, equipment category identifier and serial number of the container. 3.2 Identification marks The use of marks in accordance with the identification system specified in 3.1, i.e. owner code, equipment category identifier, serial number and
48、 check digit, is mandatory for freight containers and recommended for all equipment as stated in 3.1.2. The characteristics (size, shape, layout, etc.) detailed in 6.1 and 6.2.1 shall be displayed as nearly as practicable in accordance with clause 6, i.e. legible to the human eye. 4 Size and type co
49、des and their associated marks 4.1 Purpose The type and main external dimensions of the container shall be identified with codes marked on the container. Only those freight containers which comply with both the ISO top-handling capability and structural stacking requirements set forth in ISO 1496 shall be marked with size and type codes in accordance with 4.2.1 and 4.2.2. 4.2 Size and type codes This information is mandatory for the marking of containers covered by the Inter
