DHL Expands its International Services

DHL Express, a provider of express and logistics services, has launched a new selection of Time Definite import and export express services.

A new portfolio of door-to-door Time Definite guaranteed services will allow businesses to send shipments by 9:00 a.m. (10:30 a.m. to Mexico) or 12:00 noon to major business centers in Europe, the Americas, and parts of the Middle East, Africa and Asia, as well as import from those regions to the U.S. by 10:30 a.m. and 12:00 noon. Companies can also use their Import Express account for shipments moving between two countries outside of the U.S., but billed in the U.S. and guaranteed by 9:00 a.m. or 12:00 noon.

DHL’s Time Definite express services reach all major and mid-sized cities in Europe, leveraging DHL’s regional ground coverage network and local expertise.

Users of the new Time Definite express services will have complete visibility for every shipment through proactive delivery notifications via email or SMS text message from DHL’s ProView system. In addition, DHL Express’ Quality Control Center in Cincinnati, combined with five others around the world, monitors about 90 million global checkpoints daily to spot and prevent potential situations that might impact shipment delivery deadlines.

DHL EXPRESS 9:00 is currently available from the U.S. to approximately 20 airport or IATA locations, and DHL EXPRESS 12:00 is currently available from the U.S. to approximately 99 airport or IATA destinations. DHL IMPORT EXPRESS 10:30 is available to the U.S. from about 500 airport or IATA origins, and DHL Import Express 12:00 is available to the U.S. from about 600 airport or IATA origins.
