The new facility was formed basing on the merger of the Vinh Xuong international land border gate with the Vinh Xuong international waterway border gate. 

It is expected to pave the way for the two nations to attract more investment, upgrade infrastructure, boost trade, transport and tourism, thus contributing to the local socio-economic development and promoting solidarity, friendship and cooperation between the two sides. 

The bilateral trade value through Vinh Xuong International Border Gate increased from US$500 million in 2010 to US$700 million in 2022. 

As many as 300,000 people traveled through the border gate in 2022. 

An Giang Province is now home to Tinh Bien and Vinh Xuong international border gates and Khanh Binh national border gate.
