DHL eCommerce Tracking API & MCP

Query live DHL eCommerce (dhlecommerce) package status and scan history in a single synchronous GET request or MCP tool call.

dhlecommerce covers DHL eCommerce parcels in the Americas. The same lookup also takes the USPS number of a parcel DHL hands to USPS for delivery, and returns DHL's scans followed by the USPS scans.

Tracking Number Formats & Auto-DetectionCopy Anchor Link

DHL eCommerce numbers are not unmistakable: the 10-character customer reference (123456789D) has no check digit, and the USPS tracking numbers it also accepts (92…, 93…, 22 digits, or 30 digits with a 420+ZIP prefix) auto-detect to USPS. Pass ?carrier=dhlecommerce for the first kind. A 420+ZIP prefix is removed before the lookup.

NotesCopy Anchor Link

• USPS scans: when the parcel rides USPS for the last mile, the answer already includes the USPS events (Processed through USPS sort facility, Out for delivery, Delivered), so no second lookup is needed. message names the USPS number (Handed to USPS as …) when you looked up the DHL reference rather than that number.
• Time zone: each scan carries a US zone (ET, CT, MT, PT) and timestamp is converted from it. Scans stamped LT (local time) have localTime only.
