About This Seaport
About 843,000 TEU moved through Da Nang (VN DAD) in 2025, up roughly 10.6 percent year on year, confirming the port as central Vietnam's leading container gateway. The Tien Sa terminal works five berths across some 965 m of quay, taking container vessels of up to around 2,000 TEU plus breakbulk, bulk and cruise calls, with an approach channel of 10–17 m. Operator Da Nang Port JSC targets at least 16.77 million tonnes of total throughput in 2026. Carriers calling include Evergreen, SITC, Wan Hai, Yang Ming, Maersk and COSCO, mostly on feeder and intra-Asia strings rather than direct deep-sea loops. Inland, National Highway 9 and its border crossings connect the port to Laos, north-east Thailand and Myanmar along the East-West Economic Corridor, with road and rail running the length of Vietnam's north-south spine. Clearance is handled by Vietnam Customs under standard import and export procedures for containers, reefer, breakbulk and project cargo. Construction of the neighbouring deep-water port of Lien Chieu started in April 2026 under a Hateco Group–APM Terminals consortium: eight container berths, 2,750 m of quay, ships up to 18,000 TEU or bulkers to 200,000 dwt, and about 5.7 million TEU of capacity phased in to 2036. Until that capacity lands, shippers needing direct Europe or North America services usually route via Hai Phong in the north or the Cai Mep–Cat Lai cluster in the south.
