Auteur : Office québécois de la langue française,Définition
A common carrier providing point-to-point international transport of goods.
Note :
This type of carrier may not actually operate any transport equipment, acting instead as a coordinator among actual carriers. For example, an NVOCC might issue a door-to-door transport document from Saint-Louis to Munich, contracting with road hauliers to take the goods to the U.S. pier and from the European pier, as well as with the ocean carrier to move goods across the ocean. The NVOCC will issue its own door-to-door transport document from origin to destination, assessing one charge for the entire movement. The principal value of the NVOCC is in providing door-to-door transportation service, especially to smaller firms or those with a limited knowledge of transportation services.

The term NVOCC when used as defined in the 1984 Shipping Act of the U.S.A. refers to non-vessel operating common carrier "by water" who undertakes ocean transport only, while in other parts of the world NVOCCs mean « non-vessel operating multimodal transport operators » (NVO-MTO).
