Sea freight costs and times, and official logistics statistics
- Infrastructure and logistics
- Ports, cargo and corridors
- not audited
No official or trade-association publication was found with sea-freight rates or transit times from Guatemala to Miami, Los Angeles, Rotterdam or Shanghai: these are private quotations from shipping lines and forwarders. As a public alternative, the dossier proposes UNCTADstat's Liner Shipping Connectivity Index (LSCI), published quarterly. The official series available are the CPN's Port Statistical Report (TEU, tonnes, ship calls; annual with quarterly advances), the DGAC statistics unit (La Aurora passengers and cargo, monthly) and the World Bank's WDI API for the LPI (every 2-3 years).
The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
