Billing matters
Your payment terms and credit terms will change as FedEx Express shipments will be subject to FedEx Express payment and credit terms. If you are in any doubt about when your payment is due, please review your invoice to see the due date of the payment.
Yes, you will receive separate invoices from FedEx Express and TNT. Any outstanding payment for your TNT invoice(s) should be settled directly with TNT. FedEx Express will send weekly invoices for your transportation charges and they will need to be paid by the due date on the invoice. Any duty and tax charges will be invoiced immediately – duty and tax invoices are payable upon receipt.
