The port of discharge is the port where cargo is unloaded from the vessel that carried it. On transport documents it identifies the end of the ocean leg — which is not necessarily the final destination, since on-carriage by truck, rail or barge often follows.
When cargo transships via a hub, the transport document still shows the final port of discharge, while the routing through intermediate ports remains the carrier's operational choice.
