Understanding your invoice
When shipping consignments with TNT, the following surcharges apply:
TNT applies an index-based fuel surcharge to all shipments.
We provide collection and delivery services virtually anywhere you require. For certain remote and less-accessible locations an additional out-of-area surcharge is applied to cover additional costs incurred.
TNT reserves the right to assess fuel and other surcharges on shipments without notice. The amount and duration of any such surcharges will be determined at our sole discretion. By tendering your shipments to TNT, you agree to pay the surcharges, as determined by TNT.
Due to changes in market conditions, TNT will be suspending the Demand Surcharge applicable to international services effective April 29, 2024^. TNT reserves the right to reassess and/or reinstate the Demand Surcharge at its sole discretion.
^ For shipments to or from countries/territories in the Middle East, Indian Subcontinent, and Africa (MEISA) region, or third-party payers based in MEISA and shipping globally, the Demand Surcharge will be suspended effective June 3, 2024.
Demand Surcharge will be determined at TNT’s sole discretion and subject to the terms and conditions provided in TNT Service Guide and TNT Standard Conditions of Carriage of shipment origin country. TNT reserves the right to amend the Demand Surcharge, including but not limited to the rates, duration, applicable areas or any other conditions. TNT may also, at its sole discretion, cancel, modify or adjust any waiver of Demand Surcharge by prior notice.
