Listed under UN/LOCODE CN COZ and also known as Sanbaimen, Chaozhou's port sits in Zhenlin Bay on the south-east coast of Guangdong. Spread across the Sanbaimen and Jinshiwan areas, it offers around 14 berths, six of them in the 10,000-tonne class or larger. In 2023 the port handled about 16.3 million tonnes of cargo and roughly 120,000 TEU, making it a feeder to the larger box terminals at Shantou and Yantian. Ceramics and porcelain — the city's signature export — travel alongside breakbulk, light industrial goods and calls by oil, chemical and gas carriers. Its economic hinterland spans Chaozhou, Shantou, Jieyang and Meizhou, reaching into southern Fujian and Jiangxi, served mainly by road. For international container services, deep-sea routings and full customs handling, nearby Shantou and Yantian (Shenzhen) are the relevant alternatives.
