03 / Preparation

How to prepare a DHL shipment

Good preparation is the difference between a smooth customs clearance and a delayed parcel. Follow these five steps before you hand over a shipment at the counter or to a courier.

  1. Weigh and measure

    DHL charges on the greater of the actual weight or the volumetric weight. Work out volumetric weight as length times width times height in centimeters, divided by 5,000 for each piece. A large but light parcel is billed on the space it occupies, which follows the International Air Transport Association standard.

  2. Create the waybill

    The waybill carries the sender, receiver, payment, and shipment details, and it proves ownership of the shipment. Generate it in MyDHL+, then fix it to the outside of each piece so the barcode stays flat and is never covered by tape or wrap. Every waybill carries a unique 10 digit air waybill number used for tracking.

  3. Attach a commercial or proforma invoice

    Every parcel, not just documents, needs a commercial or proforma invoice for customs. Include a detailed description of goods, quantity, HS or commodity code, country of origin, declared value, type of export, Incoterm, reason for export, and bank details where a payment is due. Keep the invoice outside the box so customs can read it.

  4. Pack it properly

    Use a sturdy corrugated box with plenty of cushioning, and secure every seam with strong tape. Wrap fragile items individually, use anti static materials for electronics, and use puncture resistant packaging for sharp contents. Any single piece over 70 kg must go on a pallet, and every piece in a multiple piece shipment needs its own label.

  5. Pay and dispatch

    Settle the invoice through DHL MyBill online, by bank transfer, direct debit, GrabPay, or card. Duties and taxes are payable by the receiver unless you select the duties and taxes paid option on the waybill.

04 / Customs rules

Restricted and prohibited items

The Philippine Bureau of Customs classifies goods as restricted or prohibited for import and export. DHL Express will not accept prohibited items, and shipping one can void insurance, trigger a refused pickup, or lead to seizure or return to sender.

Restricted, needs authorization

  • Explosives and firearms, including dynamite, gunpowder, ammunition, weapons of war, and their parts
  • Gambling equipment, such as roulette wheels, loaded dice, marked cards, and gambling machines
  • Certain drugs, including opium, marijuana, heroin, and other narcotics, generally allowed only for medicinal use with government authorization
  • Other goods whose import or export is restricted by Philippine law or administrative regulation

Prohibited, never accepted

  • Subversive materials that advocate treason, rebellion, or sedition against the Philippine government
  • Abortion related goods, instruments, drugs, or advertising material
  • Obscene or immoral printed goods, films, and photographs
  • Counterfeit goods that infringe intellectual property rights
  • Adulterated or misbranded food and drugs
  • Undeclared precious metals without a proper indication of fineness or quality

When in doubt, ask first

If you are unsure about a grey area item, check with DHL Customer Service before you book the shipment, or read the DHL shipping guides for the destination country. It is always cheaper to confirm than to have a parcel held at customs.

05 / Tracking

Track a DHL shipment

Enter the tracking ID on the DHL tracking page to see the current status, the estimated delivery date, and the scan history. A tracking ID is at least 5 characters and may mix letters and numbers.
