Demand surcharges

Updated May 8, 2026

During times of elevated volumes, high demand for capacity, and increased operating costs across our network, FedEx will implement Demand surcharges. Demand surcharges are determined for each market based on regular assessments of shipment volume and capacity within our network to accommodate. FedEx reserves the right to reassess and/or reinstate the Demand Surcharge at its sole discretion.
