Listed under UN/LOCODE VN NGT, Ben Thuy is a subport of the Nghe Tinh complex at the mouth of the Ca River near Vinh, in Nghe An province. Its two berths handle breakbulk and dry bulk for vessels up to about 2,000 GT at a draft of roughly 5 metres, with the Xuan Hai area adding general-cargo capacity. Larger ships use the deeper Cua Lo terminal nearby (up to 10,000–15,000 DWT) and the Hon Ngu transshipment anchorage. Ben Thuy runs no significant container line service; boxes move via Cua Lo or the northern gateway of Hai Phong. The port mainly suits regional bulk and project cargo and transit traffic to Laos.
