What can delay a DHL package
Customs clearance, missing import paperwork, unpaid duties, and international weather/air-freight disruptions are the leading causes for DHL's mostly-international shipments.
Remember: a nationwide alert doesn't mean your specific package is delayed — it's just one possible factor. Track your package for its real status.
