EuroCham’s Transportation and Logistics Sector Committee was established in 2009 to provide an advocacy forum for all transport and logistics members. 

As a result of its geographical location, the availability of labour, and the stability of its political environment, Vietnam has experienced strong manufacturing growth. In recent years, Vietnamese transportation infrastructure and import-export procedures have improved, but more needs to be done to enable Vietnam’s industry to compete globally in supply chains and become a regional hub.

The aim of the TLSC is to support its members in the development of the Vietnamese transportation and logistics industry. With a unified voice, we will raise challenges and opportunities to the appropriate ministries or government agencies to change regulations or operational practices.

Since our establishment, the TLSC has established close relationships with Vietnam’s General Department of Customs (GDC), regulatory authorities and other logistics associations. Through these connections, the TLSC has been able to voice legitimate concerns of transport and logistics companies, and to drive regulatory and operational changes to improve the business environment. 

TLSC members include shipping lines, airlines, freight forwarders, logistics service providers, air express operators, warehouse operators, and other related companies. The TLSC is open to all such international companies, regardless of whether their headquarters are based in Europe or on other continents. 

Our group operates under the management of an Executive Board with six members and has four Working Groups, namely:

• Customs Working Group
• Forwarders & Airlines Working Group
• Manufacturers & Logistics Providers Working Group
• Shipping Lines & Terminals Working Group
