a particularly important trade chain on the world maritime map Vietnam also owns 3,260km of long coastline, many deep-water bays, close to international maritime routes Currently, the country has 49 seaports (in 166 ports) distributed throughout from Northside to Southside The Northern seaport area of Vietnam is connected with Northeast Asian countries such as China, Japan, Korea, and Hong Kong Moreover, Vietnam's seaport area has a position to connect Asian countries on international transport routes to other continents After nearly 20 years of implementing seaport development plans, Vietnam has formed a complete seaport system from North to South with 45 seaports, divided into groups of ports Port infrastructure in some areas such as Cai Mep - Thi Vai, Lach Huyen is capable of receiving mother ships with a large tonnage of 100-200 thousand tons, contributing to turning Vietnamese seaports into an important link in the global supply chain (Vietnam Maritime Administration, 2020) Currently, Ho Chi Minh City owns many seaports, notably Cat Lai port, Vietnam International Container Terminal (VICT), and Saigon Premier Container Terminal (SPCT), etc Besides, traffic connection is also a "bottleneck" for seaport development Most of the roads connecting to ports in areas such as Hai Phong, Ba Ria - Vung Tau, and Ho Chi Minh City are not commensurate with the seaport's capacity Although the ports of Lach Huyen, and Cai Mep - Thi Vai are planned as gateway ports and international transshipment ports, there is no railway connection and weak waterway connection, leading to goods being traded mainly by road On foot, the roads leading to the port are often congested 1.2 Airports Currently, Vietnam owns 22 civil airports, including 12 international airports and 10 domestic airports Although they are civil airports, these airports all have a section dedicated to military flight operations for use in special cases Among international airports in Vietnam, there are important airports: Noi Bai (Hanoi), Da Nang (Da Nang), Tan Son Nhat (Ho Chi Minh City), Van Don (Quang Ninh) and Phu Quoc (Kien Giang) Tan Son Nhat International Airport is located at Truong Sa Street, Ward 2, Tan Binh District, Ho Chi Minh City This is the largest international airport in Vietnam in terms of area, terminal capacity as well as the number of passengers and goods Tan Son Nhat airport meets 4E standard and is a level civilian airport with the ability to receive aircraft such as B747, A350, A321, B787, B77 and other similar aircraft Every day, on average, there are about 700 flights taking off and landing at this airport, during peak times, the number of flights can be up to 900 flights/day In which, Noi Bai and Tan Son Nhat gateway airports are seriously overloaded Although these two airports are currently being tried to optimize, the capacity of these two airports has exceeded the design 1.3 Warehouses Currently, the demand for warehousing is still on a strong upward trend despite the fluctuations of the economy The reason is that manufacturing enterprises are stepping up their operations, on the other hand, warehouse rent is also forecasted to grow at an average rate of about 1.5% to 4% per year According to a report of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the warehouse system in Vietnam is unevenly distributed More than 70% of the warehouse area is distributed in the southern economic centers Moreover, the logistics market in the southern region is considered to be more vibrant thanks to the system of highways and more deeply connected seaports and ports Shortage of warehouses is mainly due to the fact that industrial land is currently still occupied with high rental rates because the current rental demand is still increasing strongly Accordingly, the land for lease in industrial zones is scarcer 1.4 Main import/export products to/from Vietnam Generally, in the first months of 2022, the total export value reached US$217.34 billion, up 16.6%, equivalent to an increase of US$30.92 billion over the same period last year In which, there are many commodity groups that keep a good growth rate such as machinery, equipment, tools and spare parts; Cell phones and accessories… Table 2: Top main export/import products from/to Vietnam in the first months of 2022 (Source: General Statistics Office) 1.5 Main Sea carriers operating in Vietnam Vietnam currently has about 10 container shipping lines, Vietnam's container fleet is small in number and tonnage, so most of them only handle domestic routes and some have intra -Asia routes Therefore, the increased exploitation of new routes by shipping lines in Vietnam and Asian countries also creates competition with domestic shipping companies According to the Vietnam Maritime Administration, there are currently about 34 foreign container shipping lines operating in Vietnam, including all the largest shipping lines in the world such as Maersk, MSC, COSCO, Evergreen, OOCL, etc Meanwhile, Vietnam has 10 container shipping lines, operating mainly in the domestic market Foreign shipping lines operating in Vietnam have representatives in Vietnam in the form of enterprises, with 100% foreign capital These representatives will act on behalf of the shipping line to carry out business activities in Vietnam and act as contract agents ... receiving mother ships with a large tonnage of 100-200 thousand tons, contributing to turning Vietnamese seaports into an important link in the global supply chain (Vietnam Maritime Administration,... far away, leading to increasing the cost and time of transportation So, this issue affects declining imports to Vietnam from the USA Instead, Vietnam is reducing shipments from the U.S and European...
