Address Correction
Express. If a recipient's address on an airbill, air waybill or shipping label is incomplete or incorrect, we may attempt to find the correct address and complete delivery. A $10 shipping fee will be assessed. (The fee is $32 for FedEx 1Day® Freight, FedEx 2Day® Freight and FedEx 3Day® Freight.) Address correction is also required if the recipient phone number is omitted for a Rural Delivery (RD) address or a Star Route Assignment (SRA) address in Alaska. If we are unable to complete delivery, we are not liable for failing to meet our delivery commitment.

Within the U.S., this fee also will be assessed if the address is a P.O. box number or P.O. box ZIP code. For international shipments destined to a P.O. box address, the fee may be assessed if a valid telephone, fax or telex number is not provided for the recipient.

For FedEx International Broker Select®, the address correction fee will apply if the broker's address is incomplete or incorrect on your air waybill or other shipping documentation. If we cannot determine the correct address or cannot reach the broker, we may attempt to contact the sender for address clarification or instructions to return the shipment. If we are unable to complete delivery under these circumstances, we are not liable for failing to meet our delivery commitment.

Ground. If we are unable to deliver a shipment because the shipper-provided address is incorrect or is a P.O. box, we will attempt to determine the correct address, complete delivery and notify the shipper of the address correction. We assess an additional charge of $5 for delivery or attempted delivery to the corrected address. The money-back guarantee does not apply to these shipments, and we are not liable for failing to complete delivery or meet our scheduled delivery time.

For FedEx Ground Multiweight® and FedEx® International Ground Multiweight shipments, the fee for the first package is $5 and for each additional package is $3. The maximum total charge is $35 per shipment.

Delivery Reattempts
Express and Ground U.S. Nonresidential Shipments. FedEx Express and FedEx Ground will reattempt delivery of U.S. nonresidential shipments if: 1) no one at the recipient address or a neighboring address is available to sign for the package, and there is no signature release on file; or 2) a FedEx® Delivery Signature Option has been selected and no eligible recipient is available to sign for the package.

Express and Ground U.S. Residential Shipments. FedEx Express and FedEx Ground will reattempt delivery of U.S. residential shipments if: 1) a FedEx Delivery Signature Option has been selected and no eligible recipient is available to sign for the package; or 2) we, in our sole discretion, determine the package may not be released. Some exceptions apply. See the FedEx Express Terms and Conditions and FedEx Ground Tariff for details.

Express Package (International). For FedEx Express international packages, we provide re-delivery service upon request at no additional charge. However, if delivery of a shipment to a residential address in an international location (including a residence used as an office) cannot be completed on the initial attempt, we may, at our sole discretion, either reattempt delivery, hold the shipment at our facility until we contact the recipient for further delivery instructions, or both. After three attempts to deliver and/or three attempts to notify the recipient, or five business days from the date of shipment, whichever occurs first, the shipment may be considered undeliverable.

For FedEx International First®, we may provide three delivery attempts. For shipments that cannot be delivered on the first delivery attempt, we may reattempt delivery by 10:30 a.m. on the day of the first attempted delivery. If necessary, a second reattempt may occur by 10:30 a.m. the following business day.

Express Freight. If we cannot complete delivery of a FedEx Express Freight U.S., FedEx International Priority Freight or FedEx International Economy Freight shipment on the initial delivery attempt, the freight will be returned to the nearest receiving facility. We will not reattempt delivery unless it is requested by the shipper or recipient, and for U.S. shipments the reattempt will be subject to a Delivery Reattempt Charge. After three attempts to notify the recipient or shipper, or five business days after the initial delivery attempt, whichever comes first, the shipment may be considered undeliverable.

Dimensional Weight
Express. FedEx Express may assess shipping charges based on the International Air Transport Association (IATA) volumetric standard. Dimensional weight is calculated by multiplying the length by width by height of each package in inches and dividing the total by 194 (for U.S. shipments and shipments between the U.S. and Puerto Rico) or 166 (for international shipments). If the dimensional weight exceeds the actual weight, charges may be assessed based on the dimensional weight. Dimensions of one-half inch or greater are rounded up to the next whole number; dimensions less than one-half inch are rounded down. The final calculation is rounded up to the next whole pound.

Dimensional weight applies on a per-package or per-shipment basis to all U.S. shipments in customer packaging, and on a per-shipment basis to all international shipments and U.S.-Puerto Rico shipments in customer packaging. Shipments in FedEx packaging may also be subject to dimensional-weight pricing.

Duties and Taxes
Express (International). Duties and taxes, including goods and services tax (GST) and value-added tax (VAT), may be assessed on the contents of the shipment. Any such charges will be billed to the recipient, unless you instruct us otherwise. In the event we advance duties and taxes on any given shipment, the payer will be assessed a surcharge based on a flat rate or on a percentage of the total amount advanced. See the Duties and Taxes section in the FedEx Express International Terms and Conditions for details.
