Due to continued volatility in the fuel market and to maintain pricing accuracy and transparency, DHL will implement weekly fuel surcharge updates starting April 13 and continuing until further notice.

This change affects only the update frequency. The fuel surcharge calculation method, including the fluctuating 20-day rolling US Gulf Coast (USGC) average and the published fuel surcharge table, remains unchanged.

We are taking every step to protect our customers from unnecessary cost fluctuations and to ensure fair and predictable pricing.
