      "q": "What does the FedEx admin fee field represent?",
      "a": "Use it for a FedEx advancement, disbursement, brokerage, or administration fee from your account terms, invoice history, or planning assumption."
    },
    {
      "q": "Does the de minimis threshold remove all FedEx charges?",
      "a": "No. In this model it suppresses estimated duty and VAT/GST only. Carrier, storage, correction, return, or inspection fees may still apply."

    {
      "q": "How is this different from the customs and duty fees calculator?",
      "a": "This page is tailored to FedEx parcel-import planning and labels the carrier fee as a FedEx advancement or admin fee. The customs and duty fees calculator is the generic canonical version."
    },
    {
      "q": "Which country calculator should I use for local rules?",
      "a": "Use the USA, UK, Canada, India, Australia, or other country-specific customs calculators when local fee labels and tax bases matter."
