Since Hateco Hai Phong International Container Terminal (HHIT) officially put automatic gate into operation in June this year, vehicle turnaround time has been reduced to an average of only 15-20 minutes. With the context of the rapidly changing global supply chain, smart seaports have become an inevitable requirement to improve national and local competitiveness.
In particular, connecting inter-sectoral data among parties from seaports, import-export enterprises, shipping lines to customs agencies helps to increase transparency and optimize the logistics chain. In Viet Nam, the transition to a smart seaport model has been strongly promoted in a number of key localities, including Hai Phong city, which has contributed to improving port exploitation efficiency and facilitating import-export activities.
