Newsflash – Covid-19: UK isolation grows as more countries ban travel

Dear Valued Customers,

It is important for us to communicate situations which may directly impact the quality of service we offer and want to keep you updated on the latest news regarding more countries banning arrivals from the UK because of concerns at the spread of a new variant of coronavirus crisis resulting in ports being closed.  The Port and Eurotunnel shut to traffic heading to France at around 23:00 GMT last night in what is being described as an unprecedented situation.

As a consequence, DHL Express unfortunately needs to suspend it road services both into and out of the UK, with immediate effect and until further notice.  Although technically trucks can still enter the UK from mainland Europe, vehicles will be unable to return from the UK thereafter.

DHL still have their Air Express product, Time Definite International (TDI) available, so if you wish to convert to this please let us know so we can make the necessary arrangements.

Should you need any clarification please do not hesitate to contact us.

Kind Regards,

Jenny
