The serial shipping dontainer code (SSCC) is an 18-digit number used to identify logistics units. The SSCC is encoded in a barcode, generally GS1-128, and used in electronic commerce transactions.

The SSCC comprises an extension digit, a GS1 company prefix, a serial reference, and a check digit.

The SSCC is commonly used in the advance ship notice (ASN) EDI transaction.
