In the first 10 months of this year, Vietnamese sea ports handled 608.3 million tonnes of goods—up by 3 per cent annually and nearly 84 per cent of the annual target, according to the Vietnam Marine Administration. The volume of import-export goods decreased slightly while that of domestic ones grew by 4 per cent year-on-year to 284.6 million tonnes.

The container throughput hit 20.8 million TEUs, annually rising by 4 per cent and meeting 84 per cent of the yearly plan. Import containers constituted over 7.1 million TEUs of the total, posting the highest annual growth of 8 per cent.

Several seaport enterprises in the country recorded profits during the third quarter this year despite difficulties due to socio-economic fluctuations.

The Da Nang Port, the largest container seaport in the central region, recorded its profit after filing a corporate income tax of nearly 66 billion VND—up by 12.46 per cent over the same period in 2021.

The Port of Hai Phong JSC, which handles ports with the largest cargo throughput in the north, logged 222.2 billion VND ($8.93 million) in consolidated pre-tax profit in the three months—up by 20 per cent against last year, a news agency reported.
