DHL or other Couriers needed

Post by Doc67 »

I need to send some documents to Hanoi.

Google search for DHL produces two DHL sites, one near the airport and the other on Mao Tse Tong. The website just directs me to the German one and doesn't seem capable of quoting for PP to Hanoi.

Has anyone used DHL here or any other such as UPS? If so, what is the process?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

The one close to the airport is their main depot, better avoid is possible. I always use the one on Monivong because it's not that far out. Can be used for deliveries and shipments.

I have found FedEx a lot cheaper than DHL when sending stuff long haul.
Surely for Vietnam there are local companies?

Yeah, I've used DHL on Monivong a number of times. Not cheap but very reliable.
