When a package’s FedEx tracking status changes to “Intl shipment release,” it means that customs authorities in the country of delivery have processed and released the shipment. This phrase applies solely to packages that are shipped across borders via FedEx.
FedEx picks up the package from the sender and transports it through customs and on to the destination country. Upon arrival at the recipient’s country’s port of entry, customs officers do a thorough inspection of the package and collect any necessary taxes or charges. When the box has been picked up, it is transferred to a FedEx distribution centre until it reaches its final destination.
