DHL Express UAE Raises 2019 Shipment Prices by 4.9%

New prices effective from January 1 2019

DHL Express has announced an annual price increase of 4.9% for shipments, effective January 1, 2019.

Geoff Walsh, UAE Country Manager, DHL Express: “DHL Express has been significantly investing in our international network to meet highest expectations and to offer an even better service for our customers globally.

“Our aim is to deliver continuous improvement in quality to meet our customers’ needs even more. The annual price adjustment allows us to further strengthen our infrastructure, ensuring best-in-class customer solutions by using innovative technologies and individual delivery processes.

“Particularly in the last few weeks and months, we focused on investing in hub expansions and new gateways in many markets and thereby boosted its processing shipment capacities per hour and reduced our transit times.”

DHL Express adjusts its prices annually, taking into account inflation, currency dynamics and other rising costs, such as expenses related to compliance with enhanced security regulations, in each of the more than 220 countries and territories that it serves.
