# Fuel Surcharge

Carriers apply additional charges beyond the standard service scope. These charges are passed through by Linkolis on top of fulfillment prices, with no added margin.

The **energy surcharge** covers fluctuations in the cost of diesel, electricity and gas for road transport. The **fuel surcharge** covers fluctuations in kerosene prices for air transport. Both are recalculated every month based on current market prices.

> The surcharge rates below are applied as-is — Linkolis does not add any margin on top of these rates.

***

### How to calculate the impact on your shipment cost

Multiply the base fulfillment price by **(1 + surcharge rate)**.

**Example:** Base fulfillment price = €7.00 / Energy surcharge = 18.65% → Final price = €7.00 × 1.1865 = **€8.31**
