SAC is taking over Phu Quoc Airport from Airports Corporation of Vietnam (ACV). Under a license from the Ministry of Construction, SAC is responsible for managing, operating, exploiting, and maintaining the airport's infrastructure, ensuring Phu Quoc Airport operates safely and smoothly according to regulations.

Earlier, the Immigration Department (Ministry of Public Security) approved the aviation security program for Phu Quoc Airport. The Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam also granted an airport operating certificate to the company.
