As a leading port operator and logistics service provider in Vietnam, Saigon Newport Corporation is always interested in expanding the connection system, creating convenience for customers, completing a comprehensive, economical and sustainable logistics supply chain for businesses in Tay Ninh province in particular and businesses trading between Vietnam and Cambodia in general.
Current status of Vietnam - Cambodia import-export market and freight transport
According to statistics from the Cambodian Ministry of Economy and Finance, in the past 9 months, trade turnover between the two countries reached 4.77 billion USD, up 3% over the same period in 2022. Currently, Vietnam is Cambodia's third largest international trading partner (after China and the US) and Cambodia's second largest export market (after the US). The above index shows that Cambodia is not only a close neighbor but also a major trading partner of Vietnam.
The goods traded between the two countries are very diverse, from Cambodia to Vietnam include rice, rubber, cashew nuts, cassava, corn, bananas, mangoes and natural resources,... and in the opposite direction are the goods: iron and steel, fertilizers, petroleum and machinery and equipment. The above items all require high quality of storage in containers, however the infrastructure serving the exchange of goods between the two countries is still not commensurate with the potential.
A factory in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) of Qilu Cambodia that wants to export goods through the port in Ho Chi Minh City will need to spend a total of about 12-14 hours to pick up empty containers for packing, packing, transporting containers to unload export goods at the port in Ho Chi Minh City, in which long-distance transportation to pick up and return empty containers is one of the difficult problems. In addition, having to travel long distances through many routes limits the time for container trucks to move, traffic jams, border gates closing after 10 p.m. and limited quality of empty containers make supply chain operations face many obstacles. In addition, the lack of centralized clearance points for transit goods makes customs procedures cumbersome and lacks coordination between customs of the two countries. The above difficulties affect the progress of goods transportation of exporting units in Cambodia, while the goods all have high requirements for speed as well as preservation quality.

As a unit with many years of experience in the port and logistics industry, Tan Cang Saigon always accompanies customers and shipping lines, constantly striving to develop and improve service quality, expand infrastructure to bring customers the most optimal logistics solutions. Realizing the potential and difficulties of businesses in the Vietnam - Cambodia border area, Tan Cang Saigon implemented the Tan Cang Moc Bai Dry Port project located in the Moc Bai port economic zone, in Loi Thuan commune, Ben Cau district, Tay Ninh province with a total area of 16.52 hectares.
Tan Cang Moc Bai dry port is invested and built according to standards with full components: container yard, CFS warehouse, control area, parking and storage area,... and modern equipment including 3 RTG 6+1 cranes, 5 forklifts/empty trucks, 50 tractors/trailers. Tan Cang Moc Bai dry port provides full services: Checking and completing customs procedures for import and export goods by container; Temporary warehouse for import and export goods and containers; Repairing and maintaining empty containers; Receiving and delivering other goods (bulk cargo, general cargo...); Collecting and dividing LCL cargo for common owner cargo (LCL cargo) in the same container; Packing and unloading goods from containers; Transporting container cargo from dry port to seaport and vice versa; Receiving and sending goods transported by container...
Enterprises in industrial parks in Tay Ninh province and neighboring areas, enterprises trading goods on the Vietnam - Cambodia border can now return empty containers at Tan Cang Moc Bai dry port and the returned empty containers will be repaired, upgraded and reused for export enterprises, creating a logistics chain that saves costs and time. Enterprises with the need to load and unload bulk and retail cargo now have a centralized receiving point with yards and warehouses near the border gate. In addition, empty containers at Tan Cang Moc Bai dry port will help factories in Cambodia be more proactive in operating the supply chain, helping to solve the problem of traffic jams and vehicle anchorages in neighboring countries after 10 p.m. or some routes in Vietnam with limited time frames. Thereby, shortening the process time, creating a comprehensive, economical and sustainable logistics chain.
As a centralized customs clearance point, businesses can now complete customs procedures at Tan Cang Moc Bai Dry Port, shortening the customs clearance process at border gates and seaports, improving the efficiency of the Customs inspection of import and export goods between Vietnam and Cambodia. In addition, when shipping lines open codes at the dry port, customers can purchase sea freight combined with multimodal transport (sea and road) to and from Tan Cang Moc Bai Dry Port directly, helping to simplify customs procedures.
At a time when goods have high demand for customs clearance, forward ports are limited in yard space, the appearance of Tan Cang Moc Bai Dry Port with a large yard space and full dry port functions will be an extension of the main port. Thanks to that, the phenomena of congestion and waiting at seaports and border gates for procedures will be resolved, helping to promote international trade, domestic traders access foreign markets more easily.
Thus, after Tan Cang Moc Bai Dry Port is put into operation, a factory in Qilu SEZ Cambodia that wants to export goods through Cat Lai port will be able to transport empty containers from Tan Cang Moc Bai Dry Port and shorten the process time from 5-7 hours, thereby also helping businesses save a lot of logistics costs. However, this solution also requires cooperation and support from shipping lines through opening empty codes at Tan Cang Moc Bai Dry Port.
