FedEx Expands Surcharges to EU Destinations and Reclassifies US Zip Codes for Higher Fees
FedEx is rolling out new surcharges and fee expansions that will affect shippers worldwide, including reclassifying 239 US zip codes for delivery and pickup area surcharges and extending its inbound processing fee to all 27 EU nations on August 3. Over the past 18 months, FedEx has implemented more than 50 pricing changes, according to parcel spend management firm LJM, with accessorial charges now accounting for 30% to 50% of some shippers' spend. The moves come amid rising fuel surcharges and EU regulatory changes targeting cheap e-commerce imports from China.
