If a package is eligible for 2 or all 3 Additional Handling Surcharges, only 1 with greater charge will apply.

Package shape and dimensions may change during transit, which can affect the package’s surcharge eligibility. If the dimensions change during transit, FedEx may make appropriate adjustments to the shipment charges at any time.

We reserve the right to assess additional handling charges for freight and any freight handling unit that requires special handling during transit.

Effective April 15, 2024, FedEx will assess an Additional Handling Surcharge per eligible package for international multi-piece shipments, instead of per shipment.

A surcharge applies to any freight handling unit that is non-stackable, which means the piece, skid, or pallet cannot be stacked vertically in a safe and secure manner. Examples include, but are not limited to, non-stackable freight handling units that:

1) do not have a flat and stable top or base;

2) may be damaged if another piece is loaded on them; or,

3) have flat and stable loading surfaces but are too narrow to safely and securely support other freight handling units (e.g. 1-2 barrels or drums).

USD 260/package (Effective January 1, 2024)

If a recipient’s address on an Air Bill, Air Waybill or shipping label is incomplete or incorrect, we may attempt to find the correct address and complete delivery and we will assess a surcharge. If we are unable to complete delivery, we are not liable for failing to meet our delivery commitment.

For FedEx International Broker Select, the address correction surcharge will apply if the broker’s address is incomplete or incorrect on the Air Waybill or other shipping documentation. If we cannot determine the correct address or cannot reach the broker, we may attempt to contact the sender for address clarification or instructions to return the shipment. If we are unable to complete delivery under these circumstances, we will not be liable for failing to meet our delivery commitment.
