What is the clearance administration charge?

FedEx pays the Duty and Tax charges on your behalf to ensure we can deliver your shipment as quickly as possible. This incurs an Administration charge of 2.5% of the combined Duty and VAT charge or £12.00 (whichever is greater). The fee for Ireland is 15€. This Administration charge is also referred to as an Advancement fee.
