CAN THO — Tay Ninh Province aims to raise its annual gross regional domestic product (GRDP) growth to 10.5% by 2030 and position itself as a key trade and transport hub linking southern Vietnam with Cambodia, according to a resolution of the provincial Party Congress.
Located northwest of HCMC on the route to Phnom Penh (Cambodia), Tay Ninh is strategically positioned for regional trade. Following an administrative adjustment that places it within the Mekong Delta region, the province plans to enhance its role as a logistics and commercial center connecting the Ssoutheast region, the Mekong Delta, and Cambodia.
To achieve its targets, Tay Ninh will focus on developing transport, logistics, industrial zones, and border-gate economic areas. The province plans to build north–south and east–west corridors connecting industrial parks and border gates with seaports, airports, and HCMC.
Key projects include the Moc Bai–Xuyen A industrial and urban corridor, the Duc Hoa arterial road, and HCMC Beltway No. 4, which will improve links between the Southeast, Southwest, and Central Highlands regions.
By 2030, Tay Ninh expects to complete the DT.827E road connecting HCMC, Tay Ninh, and Dong Thap, easing congestion on national highways 1, N2, and 50. Between 2025 and 2030, the province will promote investments in the Tan An–Binh Hiep route, the HCMC–Moc Bai Expressway, and the Go Dau–Xa Mat Expressway to strengthen cross-border trade with Cambodia.
Industrial and logistics infrastructure are central to the province’s growth plan. Tay Ninh has zoned 46 industrial parks covering 14,500 hectares, with 32 parks ready for lease. Six new parks totaling over 1,800 hectares are planned, including Tandoland, Thu Thua, Binh Hoa Nam 1, Xuyen A (phase 3), Prodezi, and Hiep Thanh.
The province also has 22 existing industrial clusters with 1,072 hectares and plans to develop 28 more, adding 1,490 hectares by 2030 to attract over 500 projects.
Tay Ninh could become a new export-import gateway for southern Vietnam once major infrastructure projects such as the Ben Luc–Long Thanh–Dau Giay Expressway and HCMC’s Beltways 3 and 4 are completed, along with upgrades to Long An International Port and the Moc Bai Border Gate.
These projects are expected to reduce transport time and costs for goods moving between the Mekong Delta, the Southeast region, and HCMC, while improving the province’s competitiveness as a logistics and border-gate economic hub.
