Around 10, 000 Shipping containers lost a sea every year

Right now, as you read this, there are five or six million shipping containers on enormous cargo ships sailing across the world's oceans. And about every hour, on average, one is falling overboard never to be seen again. It's estimated that 10,000 of these large containers are lost at sea each year.

While each country has its own customs rules and regulations, there is some documentation that is typically requested regardless of country of origin and final destination.
