MINGFA — Cargo · IMO 9286566

MINGFA has not broadcast an AIS position for 11 days. The most recent broadcast placed it in the North Pacific Ocean, on 27 Oct 2026, 07:14 UTC. It was sailing from NANTONG to ANIVA. Vessels stop appearing on terrestrial AIS when they move beyond receiver range, so a gap does not necessarily mean the vessel is inactive.

MINGFA broadcasts MMSI 538002459 and is registered as IMO 9286566, with call sign V7IV8. The MMSI is the radio identifier used by AIS; the IMO number stays with the ship for life and does not change with re-flagging or sale.

MINGFA is classified as a cargo vessel registered under the MH flag. The vessel-type classification is derived from the AIS Type field broadcast by the ship's transponder; full cargo fleet at /vessel-type/cargo and full MH flag list at /flag/mh.

AIS transponders broadcast position every 2 seconds when underway at high speed and up to every 3 minutes at anchor. The position you see refreshes whenever the ship is in range of a coastal AIS receiver or a satellite pass — typically seconds in coastal waters and minutes offshore.

MINGFA is classed by NIPPON KAIJI KYOKAI (NKK), the classification society responsible for inspecting the vessel against safety, structural and operational rules. As a cargo, MINGFA sits in the same design class as the other cargos listed in the Similar Vessels section of the vessel page, or in the full cargo directory at /vessel-type/cargo. MINGFA has a gross tonnage of 42,895 GT.
