It is estimated that by the end of 2025, the volume of goods passing through Hai Phong seaport area will reach 115 million tons, exceeding the plan by 3 million tons.
Impressive achievements
In 2025, Tan Cang Hai Phong International Container Terminal (TC-HICT) will continue to play the role of a strategic import and export gateway for the Northern region, helping Vietnamese goods connect directly to the Americas and Europe, contributing to reducing logistics costs and improving national competitiveness.
Lieutenant Colonel Doan Hai Tuan, Chairman of the Board of Members of TC-HICT, excitedly announced that on October 17, TC-HICT welcomed the 1 millionth Teu container through the port in 2025. This is the 4th consecutive year that TC-HICT has achieved the milestone of 1 million Teu containers through the port. The early achievement of the 1 million Teu "milestone" demonstrates TC-HICT's ability to overcome difficulties and challenges, its outstanding operating capacity, and its continuously improving service quality.
Although it is the "youngest" port in Lach Huyen wharf area, TIL Hai Phong Port International Port - HTIT (under Hai Phong Port Joint Stock Company) created a huge buzz when it successfully welcomed the MSC KALINA container ship of MSC shipping line. This is a ship with a length of up to 366.06 m, a total tonnage of 162,867 DWT. This proves the reputation and operational capacity of HTIT port as well as the service infrastructure capable of welcoming super container ships to Hai Phong seaport.
Along with the hustle and bustle of Lach Huyen port area, the ports in Nam Dinh Vu, Dinh Vu, and Song Cam areas maintain growth and development momentum. The representative of the leadership of Tan Vu Port Branch - one of the main unloading units of Hai Phong Port Joint Stock Company said: The unit is "sprinting" to strive to welcome 1 million TEU of goods through the port in 2025. This is the 5th consecutive year that Tan Vu Port has achieved the above impressive achievement.
To enhance competitiveness, recently, Nam Dinh Vu port (under Gemadept Group) successfully welcomed the first ship to wharf No. 7, officially putting phase 3 of Nam Dinh Vu port cluster into operation. Putting phase 3 into operation will help Nam Dinh Vu port add capacity of about 650,000 Teu/year, bringing the total capacity of the port to more than 2 million Teu/year. With a wharf of 1.5 km, Nam Dinh Vu port can simultaneously receive 7 feeder ships.
Expecting a new "push"
Director of Hai Phong Maritime Port Authority Bui Nguyen Khoi informed that although 2025 is a year of many fluctuations in the global transport market due to the impact of the US tariff policy. However, Hai Phong seaport activities have overcome difficulties and are vibrant and bustling. By the end of 10 months of 2025, the total volume of goods passing through the Hai Phong seaport area reached nearly 95 million tons, an increase of more than 10% over the same period in 2024.
It is forecasted that in the last months of the year, import and export activities will be bustling, the volume of goods passing through the seaport area will increase and is expected to reach 115 million tons, an increase of 3 million tons compared to the plan. The above results are an important basis for the Hai Phong Maritime Port Authority to set a very high target in 2026.
To increase competitiveness, capacity, and operational efficiency, and welcome more large ships, Hai Phong Maritime Port Authority coordinates with Vietnam Maritime Safety Assurance, Maritime Pilotage, and specialized agencies at seaports to handle administrative procedures under the "one-stop" mechanism.
With the goal of 3 reductions: reducing procedures, time and costs for ship owners, units will promote the application of information technology in management, operation and execution activities; effectively deploy software such as: ship procedures, electronic receipts, ship tracking, arranging anchorage locations, monitoring the activities of pilots, tugboats, etc.
Regarding traffic infrastructure, the route after ports 3 to 6 (Lach Huyen port area) is being urgently constructed. It is expected that by December, the first 880 meters of the route will be paved with asphalt concrete (to the gate area of Hateco Hai Phong International Container Port). Thus, the access road to the two ports HTIT and HHIT will be removed. Cars entering and leaving the ports can deliver and receive goods conveniently and safely.
At the meeting of the Steering Committee for the development of economic zones and industrial parks in the city held on the morning of November 7, comrade Le Tien Chau, member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of the City Party Committee, Head of the National Assembly Delegation of Hai Phong requested the Steering Committee, the Hai Phong Economic Zone Management Board and relevant departments and branches to urgently complete the procedures to start construction of the port area and Nam Do Son logistics center in December 2025. Along with that, accelerate investment in the Tien Lang seaport and logistics center project.
With continued investment in seaport infrastructure and reaching out to the sea, Hai Phong is increasingly asserting its role as a logistics gateway for Southeast Asia, capable of competing with seaports in Singapore, Hong Kong, and South Korea.
