Specialists with DHL Express Tools Rates
Preparing Your Shipment Packaging Your Shipment Paying for Your Shipment
PREPARING YOUR SHIPMENT: AS EASY AS 1-2-3
1 Shipment weight
Please weigh and measure your shipment. If you are
sending 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 standard IATA method. To calculate the volumetric
weight of 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 confirm this calculation.
2 Documentation required: waybill
All 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.
3 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).11
