3.2 Cambodia Transporters
Road transport is the principal mode for the movement of goods and people within Cambodia and between GMS countries. Roads are critical to social and economic development, especially in areas where they are the only available transport mode. The domestic need is to provide access between cities and to enhance rural connectivity; the regional need is to facilitate connectivity and trade within the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) and with the economies. 90% of passengers and freight came through sea or river ports continue with second leg of overland transport to final storage and distribution markets.
The trucking sector, Cambodia’s major road transport industry, is fragmented. It can be classified into three segments: (i) about 20 companies, including the biggest fleet owners, organized under the Cambodian Trucking Association (CAMTA), own about 2,000 trucks and focus almost exclusively on international container freight business; (ii) about 90 registered companies of different sizes, most of which qualify as small and medium sized enterprises, own 2,870 trucks; and (iii) nonregistered micro businesses and some small and medium sized enterprises, with old vehicles that often run without registration or inspection. The increasing number of trucks engaging in international trade encouraged Ministry of Public Works and Transport to make border crossings more efficient, maintain road safety, and avoid overloading to maintain road quality.
The fleet is limited although sufficient to serve the market at present. Main issues are encountered with specialized equipment and tertiary transport in provincial areas. Specialized equipment (truck crane, forklift, cranes, etc) are mainly available in large cities.
Foreign operators must register in Cambodia to operate domestically. Cross border agreements signed with Thailand and Vietnam enabled their respective registered national trucking companies to operate in Cambodia for cross border trade prior to COVID. Since March 2020, all cargos are transshipped at the border zero point.
