DHL, The World'S Largest Logistics Giant, Has Suspended Operations In China? Official Rumor: DHL Express Normal Operation

In the evening of February 14th, there were rumors on the Internet that Deutsche Post and DHL announced the suspension of parcel delivery service to mainland China on the same day. The reason for DHL is the lack of logistics connectivity capability. In addition, the German post official website still provides package delivery services to Hongkong, Macao and Taiwan.

At the time when China's new crown pneumonia epidemic is entering the most important battle, DHL announces the outage of packages destined for China. Public opinion is in an uproar. We must know that DHL is one of the largest integrated logistics and transportation service providers in the world. Even many Chinese masks and other relief supplies are waiting for DHL transportation.

Reporters in this regard to verify the DHL side, the other side replied that "DHL express business normal operation", according to preliminary statistics, as of February 14th, DHL Express has been shipping customs clearance of various kinds of overseas medical and epidemic prevention materials more than 760 tons to the domestic. DHL express will continue to abide by and cooperate with the arrangements and deployment of various governments, and actively serve our customers.

DHL express official statement

After verification, DHL stopped only DHL Paket service. The DHL Express (DHL express), which is well known to the public, is still normal. On its official website, it can still query the price of China and place the order online.

So what's the difference between DHL Paket and DHL Express? In fact, Paket takes the postal route. The price is cheap, but the time is slow, that is to say, the front is carrying a DHL. Even the delivery is not a staff member of DHL company, but a postal worker in the country. It is totally different from DHL Express. Popular understanding, compared with the domestic, is the difference between our postal system and Shun Feng, four links one express service.

In fact, the postal system itself has great limitations. From the perspective of cargo, according to the provisions of the postal parcel agreement of the Universal Postal Union, it is the principle that it can be shipped and handled conveniently and prevented from being left behind. The maximum amount of 15 kg of ordinary articles is 10 or 1 kilograms. At the same time, service efficiency and so on can not be compared with the daily commercial express. So now we send out some documents and parcels, most of which are commercial express services.

Baidu can be interested in Universal Postal Union.

Affected by the new crown epidemic, China's postal channels have been temporarily blocked, resulting in DHL having to suspend its mailing services in Germany, including small packages to mainland China, Hongkong and Macao. But the files, packages, and DHL freight and supply chain services that are most used in DHL Express business are not affected. We must know that DHL Paket has a small proportion in the whole DHL logistics business, so it has little impact on ordinary users.

Since February 10th, the major express companies have announced the resumption of the whole network operation. In February 12th, DHL express official announced the notice of dispatch service adjustment: "according to the current government notification, some provinces and cities have resumed work in February 10th. DHL express always complied with the arrangements and deployment of different governments, and adjusted our service arrangement synchronously. Due to the development of epidemic situation, the epidemic prevention and control measures have been constantly adjusted, and services in some areas will be affected. We will maintain close communication with you, consult with each other, and actively seek solutions. "

Please tell each other, don't let rumors spread again. In the current era of new crown disease, please do not generalize and incorrectly relay information. We can't panic ourselves. Fighting the epidemic requires genuine news and positive energy, which requires our joint efforts.
