How to Find Out Where a Delayed DHL Package Is and When It Will Be Delivered
If an order shipped via DHL is delayed, here’s what you can do:
Check the status online. Go to the official DHL Tracking website and enter the waybill number (tracking number). The current location of the package will be displayed there.
Set up notifications. On the website, you can enable SMS or email alerts about the shipment’s movement.
Contact DHL. To clarify the delivery status, call customer support:
1-800-225-5345 (US)
0344 248 0012 (UK)
Check with the seller. Sometimes the delay is not caused by the carrier but by customs or the sender.
❗ If DHL does not provide clear delivery dates or your package is “stuck” without explanation, 👉leave a complaint on Xolvie👈. This can help speed up the resolution and draw attention to the quality of service.
