**UN/LOCODE:** TTPOS  
**Country:** Trinidad and Tobago

Operated by the Port Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (PATT), Port of Spain handles about 228,000 TEU a year and is the twin-island state's principal container and general-cargo gateway, within a national throughput approaching 600,000 TEU. The multipurpose terminal offers roughly 650 metres of quay across four berths (Berths 5, 6, 6A East and West) and about 61 hectares of yard, handling containers, breakbulk, dry and liquid bulk, Ro-Ro and LCL consignments. For forwarders it is the main entry point for consumer goods and project cargo serving the capital region, with road links toward the industrial belt at Point Lisas. Heavy industry, methanol and fertiliser exports move instead through the dedicated port of Point Lisas, while Caribbean transhipment volumes tend to consolidate at Caucedo (Dominican Republic) or Kingston (Jamaica). Customs clearance runs through the national customs administration, so for large transhipment flows it is worth comparing those regional hubs.
