DHL offers a convenient plug-in for Magento 2 online stores. This plug-in allows you to add multiple online delivery options and to print shipping labels directly in your online store, which makes shipping packages significantly easier and a lot more fun. Please note that this plug-in is only available for online stores that ship orders from the Benelux region.
