Why do I need a Waybill?

It tells DHL where your shipment is going, what service you require and how you intend to pay.
It tells you the terms and conditions upon which we provide our service. Please read these carefully as they limit and in some cases exclude our liability.
It gives you proof of consignment, with a unique number you can use on our web site to track your shipment.
It tells customs what's in your shipment, so that it gets cleared quickly and speeds through to its final destination without delay.
