DHL Freight: Increased Controls and More Closed Border-Crossings Between Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic Due to Foot-and-Mouth Disease
Applies to all international products
2025-04-09 At the end of March, we informed that measures against foot-and-mouth disease affect traffic in parts of Europe.
Foot-and-mouth disease continues to spread, leading to additional measures in affected and neighboring countries. Austria is closing approximately 20 border crossings with Slovakia and Hungary. Slovakia is closing around 15 border crossings with Hungary and is introducing controls until the beginning of May.
This results in ongoing checks, restrictions, and limitations on our transport routes, as well as potential delays, adjusted transport costs, and impacts on delivery times for our shipments.
