What it means

The ship has docked — your car is back on land, parked at the destination port. BMW’s own tracker shows the same “at the port” status it used before the crossing; this site tells the two visits apart from the car’s history, so you can see the crossing is behind it.

What happens here: unloading, customs clearance, and processing at the port’s vehicle center. This stage can hold for days or even a few weeks — especially in a launch wave, when thousands of cars land together — and none of it is visible in the feed until the car is released inland.

Where these numbers come from. Stage times are measured on the iX3 fleet this site tracks daily — real observed transitions, measured since 2026-08-17, not estimates. The status codes themselves are BMW-wide: every US order walks the same pipeline, so the meanings hold for any model; exact durations vary by plant and route. BMW publishes only the current status — codes occasionally step backwards when a car is re-sequenced, and that usually sorts itself out in a day or two. Not affiliated with BMW.
