DHL Express announces its October demand surcharge period

DHL Express US says its demand surcharge period runs from October 1, 2026 until February 5, 2027, with lane and service-specific rules.

What was announced

DHL Express US announces a demand surcharge period from October 1, 2026 until February 5, 2027. Its table distinguishes origins, destinations, services, and billing-weight units. Fuel surcharge applies.

What to review

Find the row and column for your actual lane and confirm the service and weight unit. Check the separate application dates for the service category you use.

Recalculate the affected component with your shipment sample. A flat per-shipment assumption would not represent a charge based on billable weight.
