What teams should design around early
DHL service tier differences
DHL Express and DHL eCommerce are separate services with different APIs, pricing, and delivery speeds. Confirm which service your account supports.
Customs documentation accuracy
Incorrect HS codes or declared values cause customs delays and penalties. Ensure product data is accurate before shipping internationally.
Volumetric weight pricing
DHL uses volumetric weight for pricing on many services. Accurate package dimensions are essential for correct rate calculations.
