Why integrate TNT through the Sendcloud API?

Italy and cross-border pallet, FedEx-powered

TNT is now part of FedEx but continues as a distinct service in Italy for domestic and pallet freight. Sendcloud connects via the FedEx v2 API, so the courier migration history stays on Sendcloud's side.

Pallet shipping with duties prepaid or recipient-paid

Sendcloud can pre-calculate duties at label time (DDP) or transfer customs liability to the recipient (DAP). Both options are set per shipment through the REST API.

Integrate with 170+ couriers at once

Stop maintaining and integrating different couriers and use one API for all.

Questions & answers

Why integrate the TNT API via Sendcloud rather than directly?

TNT is now part of FedEx, and new TNT contracts run through the FedEx v2 integration. Direct integrators have to handle FedEx v2 authentication, TNT-specific Italy/Europe pallet shipment payloads, and rate-code mapping per service tier.

Through Sendcloud, you authenticate once with your Sendcloud API key and use a single REST schema for TNT alongside every other courier in your account. A direct TNT contract is required either way; Sendcloud rates aren't offered for TNT.

What happens when TNT updates or breaks its API?

The TNT integration is in transition: legacy TNT setups are being deprecated in favour of FedEx v2. Direct integrators have to migrate from old TNT credentials to FedEx v2 production credentials, re-test pallet shipment payloads, and update rate codes.

When you ship TNT through the Sendcloud REST API, the abstraction layer takes the hit. Sendcloud's engineering tracks the FedEx v2 transition and adjusts the courier connector internally. Your Sendcloud request schema stays the same whether TNT runs through legacy credentials or FedEx v2.

Can I use my own TNT contract?

Yes, and you have to. New TNT contracts in Sendcloud connect through FedEx v2; Sendcloud rates aren’t offered for TNT. Get your FedEx v2 contract credentials from your FedEx or TNT account manager first.

In Sendcloud, go to Shipping > Couriers > My Contracts, search "TNT" (the FedEx logo will appear), and click Add Contract. Enter the FedEx v2 credentials and click Add this contract.

If you have an old standalone TNT contract still in use, contact Sendcloud Support to confirm whether to keep it or migrate. New contracts must use FedEx v2.

See the TNT Italy contract activation via FedEx v2 Help Centre article.

Which TNT products are supported through the API?

Through the FedEx v2 integration, you can ship TNT's pallet and international parcel line:

  • TNT Economy Express International Pallet: pallet shipping up to 1000 kg

  • TNT Economy Express International Pallet with incoterm DDP or incoterm DAP: customs treatment options

  • TNT 12:00 Economy Express International Pallet: time-specific pallet delivery

The Sendcloud shipping-methods endpoint returns the up-to-date list of methods enabled for your contract. Specific destinations and rate codes depend on your FedEx v2 contract set-up.

Which TNT-specific features does the API expose?

TNT-specific features exposed through the FedEx v2 integration:

  • International pallet shipping up to 1000 kg per pallet

  • Time-specific pallet delivery with TNT 12:00 Economy Express

  • Incoterm options at the shipping-method level: DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) and DAP (Delivered at Place)

  • Same Sendcloud endpoints as every other courier in your account, no TNT-specific code path needed

Available TNT methods and rates depend on your FedEx v2 contract; ask your FedEx or TNT account manager for the full service matrix.

How do I track TNT parcels?

TNT tracking flows through the FedEx v2 connector. Pallet shipment events and Incoterm-specific milestones (DDP customs clearance, DAP arrival) appear in the standard webhook stream alongside generic delivery events.

All events are normalised to Sendcloud's status taxonomy through GET https://panel.sendcloud.sc/api/v2/tracking/{tracking_number}, with the chronological history under statuses and each event mapped to parent_status. Subscribe to the parcel-status-changed webhook for push updates. Reference: Tracking parcels.

How do I create TNT return labels?

TNT return method availability depends on your FedEx v2 contract setup. International incoterm options (DDP, DAP) carry through to return shipments where supported. The Sendcloud shipping-methods endpoint returns the methods enabled for your account.

All return labels are created through Sendcloud's standalone v3 Returns API (synchronous or asynchronous; async is recommended for higher throughput). No outgoing parcel lookup or JWT tokens are required. Reference: Returns API overview.

How does Sendcloud's multi-carrier API compare to connecting couriers individually?

The Sendcloud REST API gives you access to 170+ couriers, including TNT, through one credential set, one schema, one webhook stream, and one error model. Connecting couriers individually means handling separate authentication, payload formats, and tracking systems for each, and redoing the work every time a courier ships breaking changes upstream.

With Sendcloud, you ship TNT alongside DHL, FedEx, UPS, and GLS, or any other courier in your account using the same code. Route shipments between couriers based on rules (weight, destination, service level, cost) without writing courier-specific routing logic. Fall back to alternative couriers automatically if TNT's upstream system has issues.

Adding a new courier later means adding it to your Sendcloud account, not building a new integration.
