Xiamen Port

Xiamen Port is located on the southeastern coast of Fujian Province, on the west coast of the Taiwan Strait. It is a natural deep-water port, an important regional hub port along the southeastern coast of China, and a vital node in the national comprehensive transportation system. The port is jointly comprised of the cities of Xiamen and Zhangzhou. Its natural conditions are excellent, with the port being ice-free and silt-free year-round, and favorable water depth in its fairways, enabling large container vessels to enter and exit around the clock. As one of the international shipping centers designated by the state, Xiamen Port plays an irreplaceable role in serving the economic development of its hinterland and promoting cross-strait economic and trade exchanges.

Xiamen Port boasts modern port infrastructure and a well-developed collection and distribution system. The port currently has over 180 operational berths, including more than 80 deep-water berths of 10,000-ton class or above, and over 40 dedicated container berths, with a designed annual handling capacity exceeding 20 million TEUs. The port area is equipped with world-class ship-to-shore cranes, rubber-tyred gantry cranes, and other handling equipment, as well as an intelligent terminal operation management system. The main port areas, such as Dongdu, Haicang, Songyu, Liu'wudian, and Gulei, have clear functional divisions. Among them, Haicang Port Area is the core container port area, with several berths capable of handling ultra-large container vessels. Xiamen Port also has large logistics parks, a bonded port area, and container yards, providing shippers with integrated services such as warehousing, distribution, and processing.

Xiamen Port has a very dense international shipping route network covering major global trade regions. The port currently operates over 150 container shipping routes, connecting to more than 200 ports in over 50 countries and regions around the globe. Short-sea routes radiate to Southeast Asia, Northeast Asia, and South Asia, while ocean routes go directly to Europe, the Mediterranean, North America, South America, Africa, the Middle East, and other destinations. Notably, its routes to Taiwan are particularly advantageous, with direct shipping routes from Xiamen to ports including Kaohsiung, Keelung, Taichung, and Taipei, making it one of the most convenient passages for cross-strait cargo transportation. Additionally, Xiamen Port is actively developing its domestic trade shipping network, with direct or transshipment routes to major coastal ports in China, providing efficient options for the north-south transportation of goods from the hinterland.

The core advantages of Xiamen Port are reflected in its superior natural conditions, unique location, favorable port environment, and high logistics efficiency. Located at the junction of the East China Sea and the South China Sea, it is a critical intersection connecting the "Belt and Road" Initiative and the Yangtze River Economic Belt. The port has excellent water depth, with the main channel depth reaching over 15 meters, allowing for the around-the-clock handling of 200,000-ton container ships. As the forefront of cross-strait exchanges, transporting goods for trade with Taiwan through this port saves time and cost compared to other ports. The customs clearance environment is continuously optimized, with the mature operation of the international trade "single window" system, and the efficiency of customs declaration and inspection ranks among the top in the country. The port's hinterland has a well-developed road and railway network, and sea-rail intermodal transportation can reach inland areas directly. Xiamen Port is also actively advancing the construction of a smart port, achieving automation and information management of terminal operations, which significantly reduces vessel turnaround time in port.

Xiamen Port plays a pivotal role in the regional economy and serves as the core gateway for Fujian Province's opening up to the outside world. It is not only an important cargo distribution center on the southeastern coast but also a vital bridge for personnel exchanges and economic cooperation across the Taiwan Strait. With the advancement of the "Belt and Road" Initiative and the implementation of the RCEP agreement, Xiamen Port's route coverage will further expand, and its ability to radiate to emerging markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and other regions will continue to strengthen. Concurrently, Xiamen Port is actively developing new business forms such as the cruise economy and cross-border e-commerce, driving the transition of the port from a traditional transportation hub to a modern integrated logistics service platform.
