DHL Express offers 50% off international Rakhi shipments

Distance will no longer have to get in the way of celebrating Raksha Bandhan with loved ones abroad. DHL Express has brought back its Rakhi Express initiative, offering customers a flat 50% discount on international shipments from India for sending rakhis and gifts to family and friends around the world.

The promotional offer, which started on July 27, is valid until August 28, 2026, and customers can avail themselves of the discount using the promo code DHLRAKHI50.

Shipments can be booked through DHL Express and Blue Dart Retail Service Points across India, via MyDHL+, or by contacting DHL Express Customer Service.

Through Rakhi Express, DHL Express aims to make it easier and more affordable for customers in India to send these personal tokens of affection to loved ones overseas, helping families stay connected and celebrate the festival despite the distance.

Sandeep Juneja, Vice President of Commercial for India, DHL Express, said, “Raksha Bandhan is one of those occasions where distance can be felt a little more. A rakhi or a gift sent across the world may be a small package, but it carries a lot of emotion. At DHL Express, we see this every year. Families across India continue to find ways to celebrate with loved ones who live far away. With Rakhi Express, we want to make that connection a little easier, with the reliability of our international network and a flat 50% discount on international shipments from India. Whether it’s a rakhi, a gift, or simply a reminder that someone is thinking of you, we are happy to help take that feeling across borders.”
