Fuel Surcharges

This page outlines the surcharges that apply beyond our regular fees relating to fuel. These charges are applied as a percentage, are calculated in AUD and do not include GST. 

Fuel Surcharge Update


Effective 6 July 2026, CouriersPlease will move to a single consolidated domestic fuel levy applicable across all movements.

This change is intended to improve transparency, consistency, simplicity in invoicing and fuel cost recovery.

The fuel levy applied by CouriersPlease for both domestic and international shipments and is effective at the beginning of each month.
