DHL
DHL is one of the world's largest logistics and express delivery companies, operating in over 220 countries with parcel, freight, and supply chain services.
What is DHL?
Is DHL down? DHL is the world's leading international logistics company, founded in San Francisco in 1969 and now wholly owned by Deutsche Post DHL Group, headquartered in Germany. DHL operates in over 220 countries and territories — the broadest global reach of any logistics provider — offering parcel delivery, freight services, supply chain management, and e-commerce fulfillment through brands including DHL Express, DHL Parcel, DHL eCommerce, and DHL Supply Chain.
DHL's digital tools — including the DHL tracking portal, myDHL+ shipping platform, and DHL API — are used by millions of senders and recipients worldwide each day. For international e-commerce merchants, DHL Express is often the preferred carrier for cross-border shipments. When DHL digital services experience degradation, both shippers creating labels and recipients tracking parcels are affected simultaneously.
DHL is down or not working — users commonly report the parcel tracking tool returning "shipment not found" errors for valid tracking numbers, myDHL+ failing to generate shipping labels or calculate rates, DHL API authentication failures affecting integrated order management systems, or the DHL app not reflecting updated scan events. International shipments may also show tracking delays due to customs scan processing issues.
If DHL digital is down, Outage.gg tracks DHL digital server status and outage history in real time. If DHL tracking is not working or your shipping labels are not generating, check the live status page for current incident information and subscribe for a notification when service is restored.
