Deutsche Post is a brand of Deutsche Post AG used for its domestic mail services in Germany.^[1] The services offered under the brand are those of a traditional mail service, making the brand the successor of the former state-owned mail monopoly, Deutsche Bundespost. As of 2008, the monopoly for Deutsche Post on these services has expired.

Most businesses unrelated to traditional mail services have been switched over to the DHL brand acquired with the original DHL company. The group uses the name Deutsche Post World Net.
