It is learned that the sudden announcement by Guangzhou Nansha Port to suspend all foreign trade export document processing business is a temporary measure after the terminal was oversaturated, and it is expected to be initially restored within two days.

However, if the current congestion situation at South China ports needs to be fully restored, the most important thing is to look forward to the full recovery of Shenzhen Yantian Port as soon as possible!

At 3 p.m. on the 23rd, the Shenzhen Municipal Government held a press conference to report on the Shenzhen Yantian "May 21" epidemic prevention and control work, as well as the resumption of production at the Yantian International Container Terminal . For the first time, it gave official responses to several issues of greatest concern to the industry!

According to the press conference notice, the West Port Area of ​​Yantian Port, where the first imported confirmed case was discovered and operations had been suspended for more than a month since May 21, was fully unsealed yesterday and began docking operations!

The Yantian Port West Operation Area (West Port Area) mainly berths medium-sized container ships with a capacity of 3000Teu-6000Teu, and is also the terminal operation site where the first confirmed case was discovered.

According to the official information from the press conference: The main port area of ​​Yantian Port is expected to fully resume operations starting tomorrow, which is today, and will gradually normalize ship berthing!

By then, the yard density in Yantian International Container Terminal may further decrease and the efficiency will steadily recover!

Yantian Port is one of the busiest ports in the world. As one of the largest container terminals in the world, Yantian Port handles more than one-third of Guangdong Province's foreign trade imports and exports and one-quarter of China's trade with the United States. Last year, Shenzhen Yantian Port's container throughput was nearly 50% higher than that of Los Angeles, the busiest container port in the United States.
