- Shipments are allowed with maximum length of 302 cm, width of 203 cm and height of 178 cm*. No girth restrictions apply**

Packing your shipment
- Band all single-piece cargo shipments greater than 68kg on all sides with heavy-duty metal straps or break-resistant banding straps (including for crates and skidded cargo). For freight (with any single piece greater than 68kg) contained within a hardened container (plywood, metal) and not banded, an exterior lock or clamp must be used (glue, nails and screws are not sufficient).
- Distribute weight evenly over the skid
- Stack boxes squarely, corner-to-corner, up to the skid’s edge to maximise compression strength, but do not allow them to hang over the edge of the skid
- Keep the top level of the skid flat to minimise risk of loss or damage to boxes
- Place angled fibreboard between boxes to avoid crushing
- Cover at least the top layer to give better protection from the weather
- Wrap your freight. Pass a minimum of two bands through the skid voids and around all boxes. Banding material can include steel, rayon polypropylene, nylon or polyester strapping
- Individual boxes should include the origin and destination address whenever possible
- Remove or mark-out all old labels
Pricing
A minimum average weight of 68 kg/unit is applied for billing.
Customs
- Expanded International Air Waybill required
- Declared value for carriage must not exceed declared value for customs.
- FedEx no longer applies a limit on customs value for regular international shipments. A limit may still apply depending on destination and commodity shipped. Carriage value is, however, still limited. Please call our Customer Service for information.
Shipping with FedEx - it's easy
Multiple-piece shipments
Multiple skids (up to 9,999 different items and no more than 10 commodities) shipped on a single Expanded International Air Waybill or automation device label (1 master tracking number) constitute a international multiple-piece shipment (IMPS).
- All IMPS must meet the international express freight acceptance requirements.
- A separate address label must be applied to each skid/unit in a shipment.
- The recipient’s complete name and address must be clearly indicated.
The weight of each individual item cannot exceed the specified limits for the destination country.
