"Int'l shipment release" is a somewhat daunting phrase found in an international Fedex package's tracking that can be restated as The package, which has been shipped internationally, has been released. Fedex, however, does not explain whatthe package is being released from or who it is being released to.
A bit of quick research and logical reasoning regarding International Shipping tells me that the activity "Int'l shipment release" is a report stating the international package has been released from your country's customs to, in almost all certainty, Fedex. From there, Fedex will ship it to your regional distribution center and to your doorstep.
Actually there are two stages where "Int'l shipment release" might appear. First when the shipment is released from the sending country's customs inspection facility, and second when it is released from the receiving country's customs.
The first may not always appear.

I dont think you are completely correct. It can be used when a shipment is delayed. For example if they do not know what is in this box. It may already have been released from customs but they may not know how to classify the products inside the box. I had this problem with a package in Tokyo where the package was already out of the airport customs and in a local sorting facilty. So yes you could be right but I would say there is more to it than that. Namely when a package is delayed from the normal process at any shipping stop along the way they might use that phrase.
