What Commodities Are Prohibited From Shipping Through DHL Express?

But before you select DHL’s global network, it’s important to be familiar with their conditions for carriage, specifically their restricted and prohibited items. By being mindful of DHL’s shipping restrictions, you can ensure that your account remains in good standing and, most importantly, that your packages are able to be shipped to your overseas customers.

It’s important to note that DHL’s prohibited items list is subject to change and may vary depending on the country of origin and destination. It’s recommended to check DHL’s current list of prohibited items before shipping your package to ensure compliance with international shipping regulations.

DHL Prohibited Items For International shipping

“Thank you so much for posting this article online, it is helping me and my business comply with DHL and international regulations.

Are there DHL-restricted countries?

DHL has the right to delay shipments that are flagged during its screening process because the sender or receiver may be a denied party (individual or entity that has been denied shipping privileges by government agencies) or if the content or destination breaches country-based sanctions.

DHL may alert you of changes in these countries through their service bulletins. You can also contact your DHL account manager should you have any questions about shipping to destinations with sensitive conditions.
