Port Overview

Port Said East (UN/LOCODE: EGPSE) is a deep-sea container-oriented seaport in northeast Egypt, positioned at the northern entrance area of the Suez Canal and serving international cargo moving between the Mediterranean, Red Sea and Asian markets. The port is located in Port Said Governorate at approximately 31.2447800°N, 32.3230000°E. Its logistics value comes from its canal-related transshipment position, container yard capacity and access to the Egyptian road network. The supplied port record describes a 35-square-kilometre port area, including 33.5 square kilometres of land and 1.5 square kilometres of water surface. Our service team can coordinate booking, documentation, customs communication and inland delivery, while terminal acceptance, vessel windows and actual operating conditions must be confirmed for each shipment.

Key Highlights

Strategic location: The port is positioned at the northern Suez Canal gateway, making it relevant for Mediterranean–Red Sea and Asia–Europe cargo planning.
Container focus: The supplied record identifies the Suez Canal Container Terminal at Port Said East as operational since October 2004.
Large yard footprint: The port record reports 642,000 square metres of cargo-handling yards; current usable allocation should be checked against the booking and terminal plan.
Transshipment sensitivity: Connection timing depends on vessel rotation, terminal cut-offs, canal conditions and the confirmed relay port.
Inland planning required: Port Said cargo may require coordinated trucking, customs release and delivery scheduling rather than a simple port-to-door movement.

Facilities & Services

Container terminal operations: Container loading, discharge, yard storage and transshipment handling are associated with the Suez Canal Container Terminal. Equipment availability and terminal service scope should be verified per sailing.
Container yards: The supplied port data reports 642,000 square metres of cargo-handling yards. Reefer plug availability, hazardous cargo segregation and storage limits require shipment-specific confirmation.
General cargo capability: The port record includes cargo-handling capacity beyond containerized cargo; breakbulk, project and non-containerized cargo should be accepted only after checking berth, equipment and terminal suitability.
Customs and inspection coordination: Our service team can arrange document review, customs communication and inspection appointment coordination, subject to Egyptian authority and terminal procedures.
Inland connectivity: Road drayage is the practical basis for most local deliveries. Truck type, axle restrictions, escort requirements and delivery-slot rules must be confirmed before dispatch.

Routes & Transit Times

Typical trade logic: Cargo may be planned for Mediterranean, Red Sea, Middle East, South Asia and East Asia markets through carrier networks connected with the Suez Canal corridor. The exact service pattern depends on the selected carrier and sailing schedule.
Transshipment planning: For relay cargo, the main variables are the first-leg vessel, confirmed connection, terminal transfer time and availability of the onward vessel. Our team will request the complete routing rather than relying only on the port name.
Time-control factors: Cut-off compliance, customs status, terminal congestion, canal traffic conditions, weather, vessel omission and equipment availability may alter the planned transit.
Quotation practice: We provide an indicative routing only after checking the actual sailing, booking acceptance and destination connection. Transit time is not guaranteed until confirmed by the carrier.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Primary hinterland: Port Said and surrounding northern Egypt are the immediate service area, with wider Egyptian destinations reachable through planned road delivery and customs coordination.
Canal-linked cargo: The port is particularly relevant to containerized import, export and transshipment cargo whose routing benefits from the Suez Canal corridor.
Common shipment profiles: Manufactured goods, machinery, consumer products, retail cargo, spare parts and industrial inputs are typical categories for container planning, subject to commodity-specific restrictions.
Special cargo: Reefer, hazardous, oversized and project shipments require pre-approval, accurate cargo particulars, suitable equipment and a confirmed handling plan before booking.

Operations & Compliance

Cut-off control: Shipping instructions, verified gross mass, customs documents and container delivery must meet the carrier and terminal cut-offs. The operative deadline may change by voyage, so our team confirms it against the booking notice.
Dangerous goods: Provide the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, flash point where applicable, package details and safety documentation before booking. DG acceptance is subject to carrier and terminal approval.
Customs and inspection: Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading data, origin information and any required permits must be consistent. Customs examination or document queries can delay release and should not be treated as routine free time.
Inland delivery: Confirm consignee readiness, delivery address, truck access, container return location, free-time terms and any local restrictions before arranging the final haulage.

Shipping Tips

Send the cargo description, HS code, package dimensions, gross weight, reefer set point and DG status to our service team before requesting a firm rate.
Reserve equipment early for peak periods, unusual container types and temperature-controlled cargo; confirm whether empty-container release and depot location match the planned trucking route.
Use moisture-resistant packing and secure internal bracing for long sea legs and possible transshipment. Heavy, fragile or concentrated cargo should be reviewed for container payload and lashing suitability.
Keep a backup routing or alternative sailing available where the delivery deadline is critical. Any alternative port or inland plan must be checked for customs, cost, equipment and final-delivery feasibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is EGPSE the same as Port Said West?

A: No. EGPSE refers specifically to Port Said East. Our team uses the UN/LOCODE, terminal acceptance and booking details to prevent a wrong-port or wrong-terminal instruction.

Q: Can a shipment be booked directly to Port Said East?

A: It depends on the carrier’s current rotation and the cargo type. We verify whether the booking is direct, transshipment-based or subject to a carrier-designated terminal before confirmation.

Q: What information is needed for dangerous goods?

A: Provide the complete DG declaration data, including UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, package quantity and any applicable technical documents. Acceptance remains subject to carrier and terminal approval.

Q: How should import delivery to Egypt be arranged?

A: Confirm the consignee, customs broker, delivery address, cargo release status, truck requirements and empty-container return terms first. Our service team then coordinates the port release and inland delivery sequence.

Q: Are the stated capacity and traffic figures current guarantees?

A: No. They are figures contained in the supplied port record and should be treated as reference information, not a current service guarantee. Current terminal capacity, congestion, cut-offs and vessel schedules must be confirmed for the shipment.

Data Sources & Provenance

Port code, name, country, city, coordinates, port-area figures, yard figure, historical terminal description and traffic figures in this module are based on the supplied EGPSE port record. Such figures are presented as reference data and may not represent current operating conditions.

For regulatory and operational verification, our service team checks applicable information with the relevant carrier, terminal, customs representatives and Egyptian maritime or canal authorities before execution. General canal and maritime context can be cross-checked through suezcanal.gov.eg. Egyptian investment-zone and port-development context can be cross-checked through sczone.eg.

Data boundary: carrier schedules, terminal cut-offs, storage terms, customs instructions, equipment availability, fees, vessel calls and transit times are time-sensitive and must be confirmed against the specific booking.
