Monthly U.S. fuel surcharges

The information on this page is for FedEx accounts that have contracted for a monthly fuel surcharge calculation frequency. Additional information is available on the Fuel Surcharges page.

Changes to FedEx fuel surcharges will be applied effective the first Monday of each month unless such changes are introduced after said date, in which case the changes will be applied as of the effective date of the change. The surcharge percentage will be reflected on your FedEx invoice. Information on the fuel surcharge for each month will be available approximately one week before the surcharge is applicable.

The fuel surcharge percentage for FedEx Ground^®, FedEx Home Delivery^®, and FedEx International Ground^® services is subject to monthly* adjustment based on the monthly published national U.S. on-highway average price for a gallon of diesel fuel.

The fuel surcharge  for all other services is based on the monthly published U.S. Gulf Coast (USGC) spot price for a gallon of kerosene-type jet fuel.

*For FedEx accounts that have contracted for a different calculation frequency for any FedEx service, that same contracted calculation frequency may apply for all FedEx services. Notwithstanding any information provided herein, the customer agreement is the final authority for all matters related to the customer’s fuel surcharge calculation and the frequency of the calculation adjustment.
