DHL Freight Service Alerts

The Romanian government has amended the system for regulating the import and export of goods to/from Romania, known as RO E-TRANSPORT, effective from July 1st, 2024. Buyers or sellers of goods in Romania must declare shipments subject to reporting obligations to the relevant state authorities and register under the corresponding UIT number.

Starting from July 1st, 2024, the obligation applies to all international shipments of any kind of goods that meet the following conditions:

• The vehicle has a maximum technically permissible weight exceeding 2.5 tons. 
• The gross weight of the goods exceeds 500 kg.
• The value of the goods exceeds 10,000 RON (approximately 2,000 EUR).

Legal entities based in Romania and with AEO status have their implementation date shifted to January 1st, 2025.

The electronic toll system in the Czech Republic will introduce a new component of toll fees starting from March 1, 2024. This new component will take into account the production of CO2 emissions and will affect all categories of freight vehicles weighing over 3.5 tons.

The new toll rates are designed to consider the CO2 emission classes of vehicles and are implemented in accordance with European directives, aiming to support the reduction of CO2 emissions.

This is a regulation of the Czech Republic government and is beyond the control of DHL Freight CZ s.r.o.

We would like to inform you about the potential impact of the new toll rates on transportation costs.

If you have any questions regarding the impact of the new toll system on transportation costs, please do not hesitate to contact DHL Freight CZ Customer Service at +420 239 018 222 or via email at DHLFreight.cz@dhl.com.

Dear Business Partners,

With effect from January 1, 2024, the Hungarian government has approved an increase in toll rates. This involves raising individual toll components and altering their calculation method. The scope of toll-charged road sections will also be expanded, and new vehicle categories with mandatory toll payments will be introduced.

Due to these reasons, beyond the control of DHL, we are compelled to adjust the final fee for transportation or handling transportation from the mentioned date. The adjustment will vary based on the type of transportation, selected product, and the destination.

This increase applies to all shipments involving international transport products destined to/from Hungary or utilizing Hungary as a transit country.

For any inquiries, please contact the DHL Freight CZ Customer Service at +420 239 018 222 or through email at DHLFreight.cz@dhl.com.
