About the port of Vung Ang
Vung Ang in Ha Tinh province is a deep-water port serving the Vung Ang economic zone. Next to it, the Son Duong area serves the Formosa Ha Tinh integrated steel complex.
The port handles bulk, general cargo and limited container services, and is also used for transit cargo to and from Laos, which has invested in berths here.
Vung Ang is primarily a bulk and industrial port (dry or liquid bulk, steel, energy). Container volumes are limited, so containerised shipments are usually routed through a nearby container gateway.

Customs and documentation tips
- Export and import declarations in Vietnam are lodged electronically via the VNACCS/VCIS system; prepare the commercial invoice, packing list, contract and bill of lading.
- Check whether goods require specialised inspection, licences or quarantine before arrival or loading, as this affects clearance time at the port.
- If you claim preferential tariffs, prepare the certificate or self-certification of origin under the relevant FTA (e.g. ATIGA, RCEP, CPTPP, EVFTA).
- Confirm free time for containers at the terminal and depot to avoid demurrage and detention charges.
- Declare the verified gross mass (VGM) of each export container before the carrier’s cut-off.
