Tân Bình borders district 3, district 10, district 11, district 12, Tân Phú, Gò Vấp and Phú Nhuận. Tan Son Nhat International Airport is located in Tân Bình. Once the largest urban district of Hồ Chí Minh City, Tân Bình was partitioned to create Bình Tân District and Tân Phú District. Like Bình Thạnh, these three districts comprise a vast residential area which grew organically for more than 40 years without any urban planning.

Jetstar Pacific Airlines and Vietnam Air Service Company have their headquarters in the district.[2][3] VietJet Air has its Hồ Chí Minh City office in the district as well.[4]
