Frequently Asked Questions
-
To start using the Customer Area you will need to self-register with your email by entering the assigned customer account. Self-registration allows you to enter the account in two ways:
a) Enter the 8 digit account and the province field will self populate
b) Enter up to 6 digits of the account and choose the province it belongs to.
-
Log out by clicking on the three horizontal lines icon at the top right of the screen and you can start the self-registration process with another account.
-
You are the first registered user, and by default you will automatically be assigned the administrator profile of that CIF. You will need to enter the account VAT verification code as the following model:
A00000000B
where,
A = initial letter (if any)
00000000 = 8 digits. If your CIF has less than 8 digits, please complete it including zeros.
B = final letter (if any)
Do not include spaces between characters.
You will then be able to add as many accounts associated with that CIF as you wish. Additionally, you can manage permissions to other users that are self-reported. If you wish and manage other CIF account shipments, you should contact your DHL manager for activation.
-
A user associated with that account already exists and, as an account administrator, you must approve your registration request. Once you have handled your request, we will send you a welcome email informing you of the permissions that your administrator has enabled you. If your request is not validated by your administrator, you will receive a weekly reminder email within one month of your registration request.
-
You have made more than ten failed access attempts in one session. An email will be sent to you with a token that allows you to unlock your password.
-
It could be due to several causes: that the email has gone to the Spam folder, your administrator has not yet approved your request and you have to wait to support your request or the email entered is invalid, in which case you should contact your DHL manager.
-
This is because it has been more than one hour since the email issuance and, for IT security, tokens expire after this deadline.
-
Depending on the volume of data in your account, the system needs a time for your upgrade. It is recommended in this case to wait 30 minutes and re-enter this time.

In your first access to the customer area, you will see the default view for DHL Parcel. However, this view is dynamic and this means you can move, delete, and add fields based on your preferences. There are two ways to do this:
1-Place the cursor over the name of the corresponding field, click (you will see that the field in question is highlighted with a gray shading) and, without releasing the mouse button, move it to the location you are interested in. Click on one of the arrows to sort ascending or descending and the reverse arrow will disappear. Click again and get the reverse order. A third click resets the initial order. To delete a field, click the red x.
