Ongoing VTR Issue – DHL eCommerce Tracking Being Misclassified as DHL by Amazon System
Hi @Ezra_Amazon
New forum post as requested
We’re currently experiencing a persistent issue with Amazon incorrectly classifying tracking information for orders shipped via DHL eCommerce.
We fulfill our orders through Veeqo, which is fully integrated with Amazon, and we always select “DHL eCommerce” as the carrier at dispatch. However, Amazon is incorrectly mapping this to “DHL”, which results in all affected orders being marked with an invalid tracking status and negatively impacting our Valid Tracking Rate (VTR).
Key Facts:
We are selecting DHL eCommerce from the dropdown in Veeqo (confirmed by their engineering team).
All our affected orders are showing “DHL” on Amazon’s side, not “DHL eCommerce”.
This issue is impacting 100% of the orders on our VTR defect report.
Amazon has already acknowledged a similar issue with Yodel, so it appears to be a broader system issue affecting multiple carriers.
We’ve provided Amazon support with screenshots, order history, and confirmation from Veeqo, yet we continue to receive generic responses stating we selected the wrong carrier.
VTR defects showing up despite using the correct carrier via an integrated system like Veeqo?
We’d appreciate any feedback from others, and hopefully this helps surface what appears to be a technical issue on Amazon’s side.
Thanks in advance,

Yes we have a case open for this, case number 10905968782, opened on the 9th March, no resolution.
Orders shipped via Veeqo, some orders shipped exactly the same way do not show on VTR as 'not valid tracking number' for same period. All orders have valid tracking and delivered.
Started end of February.
Obviously not a seller issue so why does it take so long to resolve? It should be rectified immediately then investigated, not the other way around.

It seems VTR is no longer fit for purpose.

post.1 week already waiting to resolve same DHL and Yodel both not recognised. 50% valid shipping despite all delivered on time. Amazon isn't doing enough for sellers but if was a buyer this will be resolved in 1h. Shame!

Facing the same issue when using DHL, have opened a case two weeks back and still waiting for someone to reply!

Hi @Seller_VljcWSwxyb3V5,
Sorry for the late response on this thread. I wanted to give you a quick update:
I've escalated your issue internally and I'm waiting to hear back from our partner team. I'll let you know as soon as I get any news.
Also, thanks to all the other sellers who chimed in about having the same issue. That really helps us get a better picture of what's going on and supports our investigation.
I'll keep you posted!
Best, Ezra

Dear Sellers,
Thank you all for bringing this critical issue to our attention.
I want to assure you that the partner team is actively working on it. Here's what I can share at this time:
- Amazon is aware of the widespread nature of this problem affecting multiple sellers using DHL services.
- The technical team is investigating the root cause of the discrepancy between Amazon's system and DHL's tracking information.
- All case numbers you've provided have been noted and escalated to the relevant teams for further investigation.
I will provide updates as soon as we have more information.
Best, Ezra!
