Whether your shipments are heavy or lightweight, urgent or less time-sensitive, FedEx has a solution for you — with competitive rates for reliable services to get your shipments to their destination on time.
Rates below take effect 6 January 2025.
Value-added services and surcharges
Our value-added services let you customise FedEx services to your specific needs. Non-standard shipments or additional services may incur charges on top of standard transportation costs.
Value-added services and surcharges remain the same for 2025, except:
AHS-Weight
- Updated from 18 CHF/package to 36 CHF/package.
Applies to packages or pieces with actual weight greater than 31kg. (Packages over this weight require manual intervention to avoid crushing other packages or injuring employees.)
Dimensions
There are no changes, but we would like to remind you of our maximum allowable dimensions:
- Parcels: 274cm on the longest side, or 420cm in length and girth
- Freight: 302cm on the longest side
FedEx shipments exceeding these limits may not be accepted into our network and could be refused by the driver or returned to the sender. Even if your shipment meets the maximum allowable dimensions, other dimension-based surcharges such as AHS-Dimension, Oversize Charge, or AHS-Freight may still apply if relevant.
Contact Special Services to discuss possibilities for shipments that exceed our maximum allowable dimensions.
NOTE: We reserve the right to assess Additional Handling charges for packages or freight handling units that require special handling or that require FedEx to apply additional packaging during transit. To avoid AHS, please see our packaging guidelines.

Shipments picked up or delivered to remote and less accessible locations are assessed an Out-of-Pickup-Area (OPA) or Out-of-Delivery-Area (ODA) surcharge.
We are updating the postal codes where these surcharges apply.
- Current global postal code list (applicable until 12 January 2025)
- New postal codes (applicable from 13 January 2025)
Ancillary clearance services
In early 2025, a new ancillary clearance charge called Disbursement Forwarding Fee will apply if third-party payor is selected for Duties and Taxes (D&T), and the payor is outside the destination country or territory. The fee is 25.00 CHF or 2.5% of the D&T amount, whichever is higher.
