Frequently asked questions

Learn more about DPD.

How is the DPD check character calculated?
By ISO/IEC 7064 MOD 37,36 over the 27 characters after the tag (A–Z count 10–35). Start at 36; per character add its value, subtract 36 if above 36, double, subtract 37 if above 36. Finally take 37 minus the result; 36 becomes 0.
Is the downloaded image ready for a DPD label?
Not quite: with step 2's settings its bars are 22.0 mm high, not DPD's 25 mm, and there is no height setting. Its text has plain zeros, which DPD slashes. Fix both in your label software.
Where do DPD parcel numbers come from?
From your assigned number range, starting with the depot code; on self-printed labels, the fifth digit is 5–9. Numbers are reused only after six months, nine for cash on delivery.
Can I create a DPD relabel barcode here?
No. A relabel barcode has 27 characters without the tag; the generator accepts exactly 28. With current routing data, issued three times a year, you print normal labels.
