Fuel surcharge

GLS charges a fuel surcharge because rising crude oil prices have a significant
impact on the price of transport, and therefore also on parcel delivery costs.

How it works

GLS Ireland has introduced a flexible diesel fuel surcharge as of 1st April 2006. It means that the surcharge adjusts to rising or falling diesel fuel prices.

The surcharge is based on the AA Roadwatch prices and subject to monthly updates. The current fuel surcharge is disclosed separately and transparently in invoices.
