Clearance Services

Clearance services and related fees assessed on international shipments

FedEx offers standard customs clearance, however, we also offer a comprehensive range of value-added solutions when your shipment has special clearance needs. Our Clearance Services offerings may be different per country/territory depending on the additional processing that may be required by a local regulatory agency or when special processing is requested from our customs broker. We may assess a service fee to obtain the release of your shipment from any regulatory agency or for special services you may request. We may charge a fee for standard customs clearance service in some countries/territories or in some FedEx subsidiaries. We may apply and bill these service fees, which are subject to change, to shippers, recipients or designated third parties.
 

Fees related to Clearance Services that are incurred will be listed on your invoice as separate line items. International shipments to or from FedEx destinations may incur fees for Clearance Services. We may apply and invoice these service fees, which are subject to change, to shippers, recipients or designated third parties.
