Myanmar International Terminals Thilawa (Burmese: မြန်မာ အပြည်ပြည်ဆိုင်ရာ ဆိပ်ကမ်း သီလဝါ, abbreviated MITT), also known as the Yangon Port International Terminal or Thilawa Port,[1][2] is a deep river port on the Yangon River, 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) south of downtown Yangon in Myanmar. Thilawa Port is the largest port terminal in Myanmar[3] and, alongside the Port of Yangon, is one of the two main ports of Yangon.[2]
The international multi-purpose container port can operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.[4] The port can handle up to 7,300 ships per year.[2]
Thilawa Port has a draft of 10 meters and can handle ships of up to 20,000 tons with up to 2,000 TEUs.[2] The port was expanded in early 2020, with a lower previous draft of 9 meters and a capacity of ships weighing up to 15,000 tons with up to 1,500 TEUs.[2]
