PLANTATION, Fla., Oct. 17, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DHL, the world's leading international express shipping provider, launched a redesigned website for U.S. customers today at DHL-USA.com. With a fresh look, improved navigation experience and quick access to all DHL shipping solutions, the new DHL-USA.com is a one-stop solution for U.S. importers and exporters. From shipping to tracking to billing, now shipping with DHL is easier than ever.

The new DHL-USA.com is powered by a global DHL web platform used in over 140 countries – providing international regulatory support and resources to help exporters and importers ship with ease. Shippers can "fast lane" to online shipping tools, as well as take advantage of a new Resource Center featuring expert shipping advice, solutions for small to mid-sized businesses, and other information to help customers take their business across international borders.  

Along with the new U.S.website, DHL Express will also unveil a Paperless Clearance feature forU.S.clients.  Available soon, Paperless Clearance will enable customers to electronically transmit documents to Customs – eliminating the need to print and manually attach hard copy export documents like Certificates of Origin and Commercial and Pro Forma Invoices to shipments.
