On January 1st 2007 two new countries joined the European Union (EU): Bulgaria and Romania. Alongside the existing 25 EU countries, the new EU is the world's single largest trading area.
This further expansion of the EU opens up many new and exciting inter-trade opportunities within the EU business community.
The customs barriers currently existing between Bulgaria, Romania and the EU countries were lifted with effect January 1st 2007. As a result, when shipping with DHL to or from Bulgaria or Romania you can now benefit from:
Reduced shipping costs (no customs clearance charge)
Less paperwork for you and your customers
Earlier deliveries for certain areas
More efficient lead-times
DHL provides more choice, more flexibility and more reliability for customers. Click here to see more details on the EU enlargement and DHL services.
