Express Customer Service FAQs

DHL has always been committed to customer service, anticipating needs and providing the highest level of service and reliability at all times.

The DHL Tracking page can provide up-to-date information on your shipment location.

A DHL account is highly recommended if you ship frequently. This offers you negotiated price savings and the opportunity to pay by monthly invoice. Less frequent shippers can pay by cash or credit card.

In the unlikely event that a Time Definite Delivery misses its scheduled delivery through our fault, you should contact your local customer service department who will arrange a credit for you.

If your shipment failed to arrive, it is important that you contact customer service with an accurate description of the goods and their packaging as soon as possible. Our “found shipment centers” hold on to items that were not properly addressed or that became detached from their packaging. It is possible that they will be able to reunite you with your shipment. If this fails, please contact customer service

to file a report.
