Shipment weightPleaseweighandmeasureyourshipment.Ifyouaresending a large but lightweight shipment, where its volumetric (dimensional) weight exceeds its actual weight, the cost of the shipment is calculated on the space your consignment takes up on the aircraft. This is a standardIATAmethod.Tocalculatethevolumetricweightof your shipment, simply multiply the length by height by width in centimeters, then divide the total sum by 5,000 for each piece in the shipment. Any piece in the shipment may be re-weighed and/or re-measured by DHL to confirmthiscalculation.

Documentation required: waybillAll shipments sent with DHL Express need to have a fully completed DHL waybill or label securely attached to each piece. This will enable the successful movement of your shipment through the DHL network. Each waybill or label is individually numbered to allow you to track your shipment from collection through to delivery. Your shipment may also need to be accompanied by customs documentation, such as a commercial or proforma invoice, as well as additional paperwork depending on the contents and value of the shipment and the country you are sending to.

Documentation required: invoice A commercial or proforma invoice is required when sending non-document shipments to countries and territories outside your origin country or customs union. This is essentially a declaration containing all the details of a transaction and is used by customs authorities to assess if duties or taxes are payable. A commercial invoice is used when goods are part of a commercial transaction or intended for resale. A proforma invoice is used when sending goods of no commercial value (for example, when sending samples).

DHL Express does not accept shipments exceeding 1,000kg, or containing pieces exceeding 300kg or 300cm in length, and/or not meeting DHL standards for packing. Refer to our Packing Guide on dhl.co.uk/packingguide. These network restrictions are subject to change with 30 days’ notice.
