Dusseldorf (Reuters) – In view of the increased energy costs and high inflation, Deutsche Post is turning the screw on prices: corporate customers have to pay from 01.
January 2023 pay more for their packages. In addition to a significant increase in the base price, the package of increases includes two new surcharges for DHL Paket, the Bonn-based group announced on Monday. In the future, corporate customers will have to pay a variable energy surcharge based on the price development of diesel, gas and electricity. In the months of November and December, when there are high parcel volumes, partly due to the Christmas business, a “peak surcharge” of EUR 0.19 per shipment will also be due in future.
The prices for DHL parcel shipping by private customers remained unchanged, the group said. The increase package does not include the national and international express business of the subsidiary DHL. The group did not give details of the increase in the basic price for DHL Paket, because prices for corporate customers are negotiated individually.
