siuntos lipdukas siuntos lipdukas

 

In order to further reduce the potential risks of COVID-19 and limit physical contact, we strongly recommend that you refrain from using handwritten parcel stickers filled in by the courier and create them by yourself with the parcel marking interface at www.esiunta.lt.

  1. Avoid close contact with the courier;
  2. There will be no need to discuss with the courier or provide parcel data on paper;
  3. There is no need to check a hand-filled sticker;
  4. The time spent by the courier at your company's premises will be reduced.

How to create a parcel sticker?

We will create a login and password for your convenience. Send us your DPD payer ID and company name by e-mail to [email protected].

What should I do if I don't have a printer?

After entering the parcel data at www.esiunta.lt, call the courier and they will bring the parcel sticker free of charge the next business day and pick up your parcels.

 

In response to the quarantine and the increased risk to our couriers, we strongly recommend that you refrain from using handwritten parcel stickers, and we would like to inform you that, from April 1, 2020, all parcels prepared without a parcel sticker will be subject to an additional charge of €1.50.
