Established in 2014, Dhlink (驼飞侠 in Chinese) is a comprehensive cross-border logistics platform in the portfolio of DHgate, a renowned B2B cross-border e-commerce platform headquartered in China, which is similar to Alibaba. Dhlink mainly serves DHgate’s customer base, Myyshop merchants, and external customers who need efficient end-to-end logistics solutions and warehousing services. By the end of 2020, Dhlink operated over 100 logistics routes and more than 10 warehouses outside of China, with a comprehensive service coverage of 223 countries and territories in the world.
Dhlink is powered by state-of-the-art technologies, including artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data, as well as Internet of Things. By working with logistics companies such as China Post, 4PX, J&T Express, Sunyou, FedEx, and UPS, as well as integrating the resources of a dozen Chinese logistics service providers, it offers shipping, multimodal transport, warehousing, and last-mile delivery services to online retailers.
Dhlink provides four different types of shipping services, namely, FBD (fulfillment by Dhlink) direct-line shipping services, FBD CN, and overseas warehousing services. Notably, Dhlink direct-line shipping services fall into four categories, i.e., Express, Standard, Simple, and Economy. Here, we will mainly focus on popular Dhlink shipping services and the corresponding Dhlink tracking service.
Dhlink partners with many shipping carriers, including FedEx, UPS, 4PX, J&T Express, and DPEX Worldwide, to provide Express shipping services, and the average shipping time varies from 3 to 20 days, which is great for time-sensitive, bulky, and valuable items.
You can use the Dhlink tracking service on the Dhlink official website. The Dhlink tracking service requires a Dhlink tracking number composed of 15 alphanumeric characters (two letters + 13 digits). As soon as the package is handed over to a Dhlink courier partner, you can get another tracking number and the courier name, with which you use the courier website for package tracking. If you have a large number of Dhlink packages, you’d better leverage dedicated package tracking websites like ParcelPanel to automate tracking.
A great number of Dhlink Standard shipping services are provided by China Post, 4PX, and Dhlink. Many of Dhlink’s logistics partners are lesser-known to international sellers outside China, such as Yuanyou, Topwin, Linlong Express, and CNE Express. Dhlink Standard shipping services differ in package collection service areas, destinations, weight limits, product attributes, and transit times. In particular, China Post ePacket and EMS shipping services account for the largest share; Dhlink Smart US Line (G+E+S) and Dhlink Smart EU Line (G+E+S) are among Dhlink’s most popular branded shipping services.
Dhlink, in cooperation with China Post, provides online sellers an easy way to ship products from cities including Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Zhengzhou, Fuzhou, Xiamen, Putian, Wuhan, Yiwu, Ningbo, and Nangchang by using ePacket (also referred to as EUB). The average transit time varies from 7 to 60 days, depending on the destination country.
Launched in September 2022, Dhlink Smart US Line is a premium shipping service for shipping general, electric, and special products under 5kg to the contiguous United States (excluding Alaska, Puerto Rico, Guam, Hawaii, P.O. boxes, military addresses, etc.).
It aims to improve DHgate merchants’ shipping experience by providing more affordable shipping rates. The average transit time of Dhlink Smart US Line is between 14 - 28 days. Dhlink Smart US Line pickup service is available in certain districts in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan, and Putian. However, merchants can send packages to Dhlink’s warehouse located in Bao’An, Shenzhen.
You can rely on the Dhlink tracking service on the official website or third-party package websites that support Dhlink tracking.
Dhlink Smart US Line vs ePacket: the shipping service provider, transit time, origins, destinations, and shipping requirements are all different.
Dhlink partners with Sunyou to offer Smart EU Line, a premium shipping service for shipping general, electric, and special products under 2kg to the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. To be eligible for this service, merchants must be IOSS-registered. Additionally, only white-label packages will be accepted, and the product value of each order should not exceed 150 euros.
If you’re expecting a Dhlink Smart EU Line parcel, you may use the Dhlink tracking service, Sunyou package tracking service, or a third-party package tracking website like ParcelPanel to access real-time updates.
Since Dhlink works closely with couriers, including DHL, FedEx, UPS, and TNT, online retailers can get up to 80% off official shipping rates by using Dhlink. Go to DHgate Seller Portal, and you can find shipping couriers recommended by Dhlink, including:

The Dhlink tracking tool also allows you to track packages handled by Dhlink shipping partners. You should use the Dhlink tracking number (referred to as 运单号 in Chinese), which typically consists of 15 alphanumeric characters (two letters + 13 digits) for tracking on the Dhlink official website. It’s worth mentioning that since the Dhlink tracking tool only supports up to 10 Dhlink tracking numbers at a single time, you may take advantage of ParcelPanel’s Dhlink tracking services to improve efficiency.
DHgate has built its satellite warehouse with China Post. The warehouse operates all year round and boasts one-stop, end-to-end fulfillment services.

With the order tracking page automatically created by ParcelPanel for self-service, you can effectively reduce “Where is My Order” inquiries, get customers to return more frequently for order lookup, and get additional sales easily with AI-powered product recommendations.

If you buy from Dhgate, it’s very likely that your package will be sent via Dhlink. In this case, you can get the Dhlink tracking number you need for package tracking by going to “My Orders” after login. If you’re selling on Dhgate and using Dhlink for order fulfillment, after shipping, you’ll find the Dhlink tracking number in the order management section of the seller portal.
The Dhlink tracking number typically starts with 2 letters, followed by 13 digits. If Dhlink works with a logistics partner for the package delivery, you can find another tracking number by using the Dhlink official tracking tool. However, the format of the second tracking number depends on the service provided by Dhlink’s partners.
