DHL Logistics has played a pioneer role in the freight forwarding industry as it was the first freight forwarder to establish a worldwide in-house security department; it has also implemented an integrated security program focused on pro-activity and prevention and maintaining adequate security measures to protect customer assets.
DHL Global Forwarding was one of the first global freight forwarders to receive a C-TPAT certification in February 2003. The certification was followed by a successful validation carried out by US Customs & Border Protection (CBP) officials in April 2004. As a result of the validation process, several of our operational procedures were named C-TPAT best practice by the CBP.
With more than 100 highly-secured locations, DHL Logistics has the most extensive network of facilities, fulfilling and mostly exceeding the highest security standards in physical and operational security set by customers and their organisations as well as by regulatory bodies.
DHL Logistics Security Department is acknowledged within the industry for its expertise in supply chain security and for providing professional advice and consultancy in all security-related matters. We ensure transparency with our internal security audit and risk assessment programmes for lanes and locations. Moreover, we guarantee quick response times to security-related incidents thanks to our global incident reporting system and our contacts with local and international law enforcement authorities.
It is our goal to become the benchmark for supply chain security in the industry.

Incoterms
The sales contract between seller (shipper) and buyer (consignee) usually forms an important foundation for provision of logistics services to our customers. Incoterms, as issued by the International Chamber of Commerce, are designed to be an integral part of these sales contracts, regulating the division of costs, risks and obligations between seller and buyer.
For an overview of the most commonly used Incoterms in intercontinental transportation, DHL Global Forwarding has produced a guide with a simple chart and short definitions. To obtain a copy, please contact your regular sales contact.
