MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- FedEx Express and TNT, subsidiaries of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX), will implement a temporary surcharge on all international parcel and freight shipments from all origins across the FedEx global network due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The surcharge goes into effect April 6, 2020.

FedEx and TNT continue to operate as essential businesses, keeping commerce moving and delivering critical relief under state of emergency and shelter-in-place restrictions issued in various parts of the world. These restrictions have disrupted global supply chains, and in response to this environment, FedEx has had to make adjustments to its international networks to best serve customers during this time.
