  • If you are a member of the DC Section, you are currently eligible to take your money from age 55. This will increase to age 57 in 2028. If you have more than one type of pension savings at DHL, you may be required to take them both together, although note that any DB pension would be reduced in line with the Plan rules if paid early.

    First Tier members

    If you joined the First Tier before 6 April 1997, you would have been contracted out of the State Second Pension (S2P – formerly known as SERPS), which started in April 1978.

    This meant that both you and the Company paid a lower rate of National Insurance contributions on part of your earnings at that time.

    In return for the saving, the Plan guaranteed that the pension paid to members would never be less than the pension which would otherwise have been paid under S2P. Prior to 6 April 1997, the equivalent S2P was known as the Guaranteed Minimum Pension (GMP). This means that when you reach your State Pension Age the Plan will be responsible for paying your GMP. 

    In addition, HMRC rules currently allow pension benefits to be taken early, at any time from age 55 (rising to age 57 in 2028). However, the Trustee of the DHL Group Retirement Plan must ensure that the pension received covers your GMP payable at State Pension Age. Therefore, the Plan rules will not allow a pension to be paid before the Plan’s Normal Retirement Date if it does not cover the GMP.

    If you are unsure whether these restrictions would apply to you, please contact the Pensions Department via email at dhl.uk.pensions@dhl.com.

    • Your National Insurance number
    • Your membership number.

Get a Quote

  • If you’re thinking of moving your Plan benefits to an alternate pension arrangement, you can contact the Pensions Department via email at dhl.uk.pensions@dhl.com to request a transfer quote.


    You will need to provide your membership number, your National Insurance number, and your surname (see ‘Find my membership number’).

    The decision to transfer your Plan benefits should not be taken lightly. If you are considering transferring your benefits to a different provider, new Transfer Regulations mean we must ensure specific checks are completed before paying a transfer value to certain UK registered pension schemes. These regulations are in place to protect you from possible pension scams. You may also need to take specific guidance from Pension Wise, a free service funded by the government, before transferring your benefits. We will let you know if this requirement applies to you.

    Remember: If you need the transfer quote for divorce purposes, please state that in the email.


  • If you are a member of the DC Section and nearing the age that you’d like to retire, you can email the Pensions Department at dhl.uk.pensions@dhl.com for a retirement quote.

    You will need to provide your membership number, your National Insurance number, and your surname (see ‘Find my membership number’).

    You will receive a retirement pack in the post which covers everything you need to know about your options and next steps.

    Alternatively, if you are in the DC Section, login and go to ‘Planning for retirement > Taking action’ and request a quote.

The Tracing Group

The Trustee of the DHL Group Retirement Plan have appointed The Tracing Group to help locate pension scheme members they have lost touch with.

If you receive a letter from The Tracing Group, similar to this, please be assured that this correspondence is genuine and is not a scam. To respond to The Tracing Group’s request, please go to their website and scroll down to the “Have you received a letter?” section.

Still can’t find what you’re looking for?

We are currently experiencing a significantly high volume of enquiries, although we will endeavour to answer your query as soon as possible, this could take up to six weeks; thank you for your patience. We are also receiving significantly higher call volumes so you may experience a delay if you contact us via the telephone, so we suggest the best way to contact us is via email. Please do not contact your HR function as they will not be able to assist you with pension related queries.

The Pensions Department is open from 8:00am to 4:30pm, Monday to Friday, excluding Bank Holidays.

Neither DHL Trustees Limited, as Trustee of the DHL Group Retirement Plan, nor any of the companies in the Deutsche Post/DHL Group can give you financial advice.
