FedEx Surcharges and Fees
Beginning June 8, 2020
FedEx is an essential business keeping commerce moving and delivering critical shipments to homes during the COVID-19 crisis.
As the impact of the virus continues to generate a surge in residential deliveries and has also generated a surge in oversize, hard-to-handle packages, we have experienced increased operating costs across our network.
To continue providing our customers with strong levels of service during this time, we are implementing the following temporary peak surcharges.
Updated Aug. 6, 2020
They announced a temporary surcharge on all FedEx Express® and TNT international parcel and freight shipments beginning April 6.
They implemented this surcharge due to the various COVID-19 containment restrictions issued in countries around the world. Those restrictions are disrupting the global supply chain. As a result, air cargo capacity is limited, and they are incurring incremental costs as they adjust their international networks to best deliver much-needed goods and services in this constrained environment.
