Shipment Protection (on Shipment Details)

Upon the shipper’s request, as indicated on the waybill, DHL will provide value protection coverage. Charges will vary based on origin of shipment and total of coverage requested (minimum charges apply). Shipper requests for Shipment Value Protection over $500,000 per shipment must be pre-approved by DHL. DHL is willing to consider these requests, but is under no obligation to approve them.
