Overview
- Small domestic shipments see the biggest changes, with Päckchen rising from €3.70 to €3.99 and the S parcel from €4.50 to €4.89, while larger classes remain unchanged for now.
- EU private shipping in zones 1 and 2 also increases, with S moving to €14.49, M to €15.99, and L to €19.49, as tariffs for more distant EU zones stay unchanged.
- The quoted lower rates apply only when labels are created online and parcels are dropped at a Hermes shop, whereas doorstep options and in‑shop label purchases cost more.
- Doorstep pricing rises include a Päckchen at €5.19 with online payment or €5.25 in‑shop, and an S parcel at €5.79 online or €6.79 when paid in the shop.
- Hermes cites last‑mile cost pressures, higher personnel and regulatory demands, and ongoing investments, noting this follows an earlier adjustment in April 2025 and that comparisons with DHL depend on service details.
