# What is a SCAC? (DEPRECATED)

## This article is being kept for historical purposes. SCAC is deprecated on Vizion's servers.

Standard Carrier Alpha Code (SCAC) is used to identify the transportation company (ocean carrier) associated with the information provided. It is a unique code, containing 2 to 4 letters. It is possible for one company to have multiple SCAC's. 

For a list of supported SCAC codes for each carrier please visit our supported [carriers page](https://www.notion.so/afa65e3d79fb4a33bc5ce5c331576668?v=a7543be9963441b8aa1ad33962774b85).

 

SCAC is no longer being maintained and will be removed entirely in a future release. For your own convenience, we recommend that you use a Carrier Code as listed on the [Carrier Page.](https://www.notion.so/vizionapi/afa65e3d79fb4a33bc5ce5c331576668)
