Track and get real-time status updates for DHLink shipments.
DHLink is not DHL. That single sentence is why most people arrive on this page, and it is worth stating plainly before anything else: DHLink has no connection to Deutsche Post DHL Group, and the resemblance is only in the name.
DHLink is the cross-border logistics arm of DHgate, the Chinese business-to-business marketplace. In its own announcement the company describes itself this way: "Founded in 2014 and affiliated with the DHGATE Group, DHLink is a comprehensive cross-border logistics business unit", and says it serves 223 countries and regions with more than 100 international logistics routes and over 10 global warehouses.
The practical thing to understand is that DHLink is a booking platform rather than a company running its own delivery vehicles. It pulls together capacity from many different logistics providers and puts one booking layer on top, which is exactly why DHLink tracking so often looks inconsistent. DHLink references checked on the 24hTrack platform share no single dominant format — the most common shape accounts for under a third of them, and the rest follow the numbering scheme of whichever partner actually carried the parcel. For the same reason, the later scans frequently name another company outright: US last-mile handovers to GOFO regional hubs are a common example. Seeing a different carrier's name on your DHLink shipment is normal, not a sign that something has gone wrong.

No. DHLink is a separate company with no connection to Deutsche Post DHL Group. It is the cross-border logistics unit of DHgate, the Chinese B2B marketplace, and in its own words was "Founded in 2014 and affiliated with the DHGATE Group". The names look alike and the two are constantly mistaken for each other, but a DHLink number will not work on DHL's tracking page, and DHL cannot help with a DHLink shipment.
Because that is how DHLink works. It is a platform that pools capacity from many logistics providers rather than carrying everything itself, so your parcel is physically moved by a partner and then handed to a local delivery company at the destination. Handovers to a US last-mile operator such as GOFO show up in the scans by name. A different company appearing partway through the journey is the normal pattern for a DHLink shipment, not a routing error.
There is no single DHLink format, and that is the honest answer rather than an evasive one. Because bookings are spread across many partner carriers, the reference you receive usually follows that partner's scheme. Among DHLink numbers checked on the 24hTrack platform the most common shape accounts for under a third of them, with the rest scattered across several different numbering styles. Paste whatever the seller gave you rather than trying to match it to a pattern.
Cross-border shipments have two predictable silent stretches. The first is before departure, while the parcel is still with the seller or waiting to be consolidated. The second is the international leg itself: once a shipment is loaded there may be nothing to scan until it lands and is presented to customs, which can mean a week or more of quiet on an economy route. Scans usually restart at customs clearance and again when a local company picks it up for delivery.
Yes. DHLink has operated since 2014 as the logistics business unit of DHgate Group and states that it covers 223 countries and regions through more than 100 international routes and over 10 overseas warehouses. Slow or sparse tracking on cheap cross-border services is common and is not in itself a sign of a problem. If a shipment genuinely stalls, the seller you bought from is the party who booked it and the one who can chase it.
