FedEx International MailService
Why Choose FedEx?
FedEx International MailService® from FedEx is your economical alternative to moving international mail through the post office. Traditional international mail services require that your company sort, stamp and deliver your mail to a local Post Office for foreign delivery. Why spend valuable time processing mail and then pay costly international postage rates when FedEx International MailService® offers a better, simpler solution?
Faster
Your mail will reach your international customers within 4-11 days, on average. Compare that estimate to our competitors and you will see that FedEx International MailService® is the fastest way to get your mail to its international destination. View our latest transit time report here.
More Affordable
Better Rates. Using FedEx International MailService® is cheaper than sending your mail through other mail programs because you don't have to buy the postage for each mail item separately and pay in advance of mailing. Instead, you buy the postage by volume based only on actual weight of items sent without rounding up, and paying after the mailing has been sent.
Free pickup and supplies. We don't charge you for these convenient services. Pickup can be scheduled in the same manner you currently schedule your FedEx Express package pickups. We also offer a late pickup option. We also provide supplies to package your mail items to get them to our Mail Center.
Reduce your labor costs and streamline preparation. Avoid stamping, sorting, postage calculation and other time-consuming tasks. We take your raw mail and do all of the work for you.
No surprises. Duty and Taxes are not billed to you - the shipper, this prevents unexpected bills to you after the mailing has been sent.
No Charge Returns. Undeliverable mail will be returned to you at no extra cost.
Easier
Just bag or box it. We do the rest. All you have to do is put your mail in a FedEx International MailService® bag or box and arrange to have it picked up, either through your regularly scheduled pickup or a quick phone call.
