Developing dry ports, optimizing import and export cargo transportation

Tan Cang - Moc Bai dry port, which came into operation in early 2025, is expected to become a place for gathering and inspecting goods at the border gate area under the "one-stop" method between Vietnam and the Kingdom of Cambodia within the framework of the GMS - CBTA agreement dated March 6, 2006. It will contribute to reducing traffic congestion, reducing waiting time of vehicles at the border gate, improving the efficiency of the Customs inspection of import and export goods between Vietnam and the Kingdom of Cambodia, facilitating trade between the two countries as well as expanding the Tan Cang Saigon logistics service network to countries in the Southeast Asian region.

Activities at Tan Cang - Moc Bai Dry Port

Every day, Moc Bai International Border Gate has about 800 container vehicles exporting and importing goods to the Kingdom of Cambodia. Previously, at the border gate, there were only 2 parking lots to carry out customs procedures, so during peak periods, the large volume of exported and imported goods caused local congestion of container vehicles.

Since Tan Cang - Moc Bai Dry Port came into operation and was licensed by the competent authority to gather and check exported and imported goods, the activity at the border gate has initially become much more convenient. The competent authority divides the flow of vehicles carrying exported and imported goods, then the vehicles carrying exported goods are physically inspected at the 2 previous parking lots. Vehicles carrying imported goods from the Kingdom of Cambodia gather to check goods according to customs procedures at the container parking lot of Tan Cang - Moc Bai Dry Port. This diversion basically solves the local traffic congestion compared to before.

Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen Tai Tai, Deputy Director of Tan Cang-Tay Ninh Joint Stock Company, said that the company operates on three main pillars: logistics activities, cross-border trading of goods, and dry port activities at Moc Bai International Border Gate.

Recently, on October 20, 2025, the Ministry of Construction issued Decision No. 1810 announcing the opening of Tan Cang - Moc Bai Dry Port. When officially put into operation, Tan Cang - Moc Bai Dry Port will be a cross-border transit point between Vietnam and the Kingdom of Cambodia.

Tan Cang - Moc Bai Company has signed contracts to exploit empty containers with two large-scale shipping lines. When logistics activities are officially deployed, it will create conditions for a more favorable flow of goods. Customers from the Kingdom of Cambodia can go to the dry port to receive empty containers for transportation, then transport them to the dry port to complete procedures for importing goods into Vietnam. Enterprises in Vietnam drive vehicles to the dry port to receive containers and transport them back to Vietnam. This will shorten the time for exporting and importing goods, save costs, and increase convenience for all parties involved./.
