Final logo for Deutsche Post DHL Group, used until 2023 Deutsche Post AG ( German pronunciation: [ˈdɔʏtʃə ˈpɔst ʔaːˈɡeː]), trading as DHL Group, is a German multinational package delivery and supply chain management company headquartered in Bonn, Germany. It is one of the world's largest courier companies. The postal division, Deutsche Post, delivers 61 million letters each day in Germany, making it Europe's largest such company. The trade name's eponymous parcel division DHL is a wholly owned subsidiary claimed to be present in over 220 countries and territories. DHL Group was the largest logistics company worldwide in 2022.

DHL Group is the successor to the German mail authority Deutsche Bundespost, the oldest modern postal service in the world, tracing its roots to the Middle Ages. It was privatized in 1995 and became a fully independent company in 2000. Since its privatization, Deutsche Post has significantly expanded its business area through acquisitions. In late 2014, the group acquired StreetScooter GmbH, a small manufacturer of electric vehicles. Two years later, the group acquired UK Mail, a business-focused postal service in the UK for US$315.5 million (£243 million). The former company became a division of the Deutsche Post European parcel network.
