Effective February 6, 2006, DHL Canada will implement a disbursement charge for all air shipments requiring customs brokerage services. The fee applies when funds for duties and taxes are not provided in advance to DHL by the customer. The disbursement fee will be 2.5% of the value of the funds provided, or a minimum charge of $7.00. A charge will also be applied for additional line classification and entry. A $4.00 charge will be applied to the 6th and any subsequent lines. The disbursement fee covers part of our administrative and financing costs relating to the amounts we pay to customs on your behalf.
DHL Customers can take advantage of the following alternatives to avoid paying the disbursement charge:
1) Set up a prepayment account with DHL that allows us to debit your account on a weekly basis to cover regular duties and taxes payments to Canada Customs, or;
2) Set up an Electronic Funds Transfer with DHL to automatically cover duties and taxes payments.
Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, or would like more information, please call 1-800 CALL DHL (1-800-225-5345).
