Set Up DHL Paperless Invoice (PLT)

Overview



AfterShip Shipping helps you send DHL Paperless Invoices (Paperless Trade, PLT), eliminating the need to print invoices for international shipments. Please note that paperless trade is only supported in select countries, and DHL regularly updates the list of eligible locations.

Enable DHL paperless invoice function



In order to enable Paperless Invoice function, you need to contact your direct DHL sales manager to enable this feature.
By default, your DHL account cannot submit paperless invoice, and you have to print out physical commercial invoice when shipping.

DHL PLT label sample



If your DHL shipper account has been approved to submit paperless invoice, and you successfully generate a ETD label, the invoice details should be submitted electronically to DHL, and the wordings "PLT" should appear at your label.
