NVOCC
Non-vessel-operating common carrier is company providing point-to-point international transport of goods although it does not necessarily operate or own transport vehicles or equipment. NVCCOs will commonly contract with a shipper to move goods from the exporter´s premises to the importer´s premises and will issue their own door-to-door transport document, although they will in fact sub-contract the different stages of the transport chain to various road haulers and ocean carriers.
