Registered under UN/LOCODE ID BKI, Bengkalis is a small island port off the east coast of Sumatra in Indonesia's Riau Province, facing the busy Strait of Malacca. Its traffic centres on general cargo and RoRo ferries that move passengers and vehicles between the island and the Sumatran mainland, with regional palm oil and fisheries products forming the bulk of freight. Scheduled container services are not confirmed here; shippers needing box or tanker capacity typically route via nearby Dumai, a far larger oil and CPO gateway. For freight planning, Bengkalis is best treated as a local feeder and ferry point rather than an international cargo port.
