Important Updates on the Port Situation at Cat Lai / TCIT Terminal South Vietnam

Due to the local disruptions caused by COVID-19 impact in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, we have been informed by the local Terminal Cat Lai and TCIT about the following measurements on import Containers:

  • With immediate effect, temporary suspension to receive import containers of customers/companies whose production activities have already been suspended or halted.
  • Temporary suspension of import Reefer Containers for those which cargo to be unstuffed and stuffed into other containers at the Terminal until August 16, 2021
  • From August 5, 2021 until further notice, temporary suspension of receiving cargoes that occupy ample space at yards (such as the oversized, overweight cargo, project cargo, OOG cargo, among others).
  • Limitation to import Containers that are unloaded onto the container yard.
  • In a worst-case scenario, when the container yard’s storage capacity reaches the maximum allowable level, the Terminal shall stop receiving inbound vessels.

Thinking about your cargo planning, Hapag-Lloyd can offer you the following solutions:

  • Transshipment service: Transportation of goods from Vung Tau to Cat Lai will be subject to final approval by Cat Lai Terminal. For any cargo destined to Cat Lai, the customer must provide an LOI to pick up cargo within 72h after cargo arrival at Cat Lai.
  • Direct service: If business or production has been temporarily suspended, the Terminal reserves the right to move Containers to other Terminals or ICD instead, always ensuring close communication with Hapag-Lloyd and their customers. Any costs as a result thereof will be to the account of the cargo owner
  • Offer COD to alternative Terminal / ICD wherever feasible

Furthermore, please be informed that the following restrictions apply to the export Containers from Cat Lai and TCIT:

  • Temporary suspension of receiving cargoes that occupy ample space at yards (such as the oversized, overweight cargo, project cargo, OOG cargo, etc.) as of August 5th, 2021 until further notice.

We will keep you closely updated about the developments in Ho Chi Minh City. If you should require additional information, please contact our customer service team at your location who will guide you based on your individual situation.
