What is an ICD dry port? Current status of dry port development in Vietnam
What is ICD?
Currently, many inland port systems are being developed to organize container transportation in a reasonable manner, increase the efficiency of Logistics services on transport corridors, and contribute to reducing traffic congestion at seaports and border gates. international and major cities. Dry port development is increasingly urgent. So, WHAT IS PORT? ICD stands for Inland Container Depot, understood as dry port or inland port, dry port.
The law of our country has also given a clear concept for inland ports as follows: Inland ports are a part of the transportation infrastructure, a transport organization linked to the operations of inland ports, Inland waterway ports, airports, road border gates, railway stations. At the same time, it also holds the same function as a border gate for exported and imported shipments by sea.
In other words, you can understand that a dry port is an extension of a regular seaport, it is built inland to meet the customs clearance needs of shipments. The formation of ICD helps seaports escape cargo congestion, customs clearance is faster, easier to control, and efficiency is greatly improved. Besides the main functions mentioned above, dry ports can be used to:
- Packing and combining goods at the yard;
- Equipment installation;
- Commercial packaging;
- Repair and clean containers;
- Freight transfer point.
Current status of dry port development in Vietnam
The planning for developing Vietnam's dry port system to 2020, with a vision to 2030, was approved in Decision No. 2223/QD-TTg in December 2011 (Plan 2223). This is the first official planning related to activities of this type, but due to many reasons, it has not yet played its role and can be considered a failure.
In recent years, Vietnam has invested a lot to develop the technical infrastructure of the seaport system. But the efficiency is not high, making the economy's competitiveness still low, partly because the logistics industry does not have a reasonable development strategy.
The potential for developing the dry port system in Vietnam is positive, especially in 8 provinces and cities in the southern key economic region, where the volume of container goods cleared through customs accounts for nearly 80% of the country's total cargo volume. Currently, this area has dry ports operating: Sotrans, Tanamexco, Phuoc Long, Transimex, Long Binh, Tan Tao, Phuc Long, Song Than, Truong Tho and Bien Hoa. The main function is to gather and forward import and export goods to the seaport, and at the same time serve as an inland customs clearance point.

Functions of an ICD dry port
We can point out some of the most important roles of dry ports in container shipping activities, which are:
- As a container gathering location:
The limited space of seaports is a huge obstacle to import and export activities. While waiting for customs procedures, cargo containers need to be arranged in a place with adequate conditions so that the quality of goods is not affected. That is the ICD dry port.
- ICD dry port is a goods distribution center:
With the conveniences that dry ports bring, the transfer of goods will take place much faster and more professionally. Thanks to that, the import-export company also saves a considerable amount of time and associated costs.
- Reduce port load when carrying out customs procedures, import and export of goods:
Customs clearance time is relatively long, you have to wait for the results of inspection, loading and unloading of goods, and specialized inspection. After completing that process, new goods are loaded onto the ship. Besides, the demand for import and export of businesses is constantly increasing. Therefore, the appearance of dry ports helps seaports avoid overload.
