Container terminal selection is crucial to the growth and competitiveness of shipping lines. This paper presents an integrated method to ascertain the optimal container terminal in Vietnam by blending the rough analytic hierarchy process (rough AHP) with the technique for order of preference by similarity to the ideal solution (rough TOPSIS) in a vague and uncertain environment. Four container terminals were assessed in a case study in Vietnam to demonstrate the method’s precision and reliability. Additionally, a sensitivity analysis was conducted to verify the method’s accuracy. The findings indicate that Tan Cang Cai Mep International Terminal (TCIT) is the optimal choice. The proposed method equips shipping lines with a tool to facilitate the container terminal selection process, indicating to terminal operators their strengths and opportunities for improvement to enhance port performance and competitiveness.
