Tan Cang - Cai Mep International Terminal (TCIT) is a joint venture among Saigon Newport Corporation and three foreign partners: Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Wanhai Lines, and Hanjin (now known as Hanjin Logistics Corporation). The joint venture was granted an investment certificate by the Vietnamese Government in September 2009, with a total investment capital of 100 million USD (equivalent to 2,000 billion VND).

Officially commencing operations in January 2011, TCIT has been striving to provide customers with international-standard container terminal services. Strategically located at the deep-water port area near the Thi Vai – Cai Mep river junction, just 18 nautical miles from the Vung Tau pilot station, TCIT serves as a highly convenient transshipment hub for cargo between Vietnam and global markets — especially the country's key import-export partners such as the Americas, Europe, and Asia. The channel depth is -14 meters; the berth depth reaches -16.8 meters, capable of accommodating large vessels of up to 172,000 DWT (equivalent to 14,500 teu).
