| Portfolio Turnover [Heading] | Portfolio Turnover | |||
| Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] | The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 63 % of the average value of its portfolio. | |||
| Portfolio Turnover, Rate | 63.00% | |||
| Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] | This example helps compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other funds. Let's say, hypothetically, that the annual return for shares of the fund is 5% and that the fees and the annual operating expenses for shares of the fund are exactly as described in the fee table. This example illustrates the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant to suggest actual or expected fees and expenses or returns, all of which may vary. For every $10,000 you invested, here's how much you would pay in total expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated: | |||
| 1 year | $ 19 | |||
| 3 years | 61 | |||
| 5 years | 107 | |||

| Strategy [Heading] | Principal Investment Strategies | |||
| Strategy Narrative [Text Block] | Normally investing at least 80% of assets in securities included in the Fidelity International High Dividend IndexSM and in depositary receipts representing securities included in the index. The index is designed to reflect the performance of stocks of large- and mid-capitalization developed international high dividend-paying companies that are expected to continue to pay and grow their dividends. The Fidelity International High Dividend Index SM is constructed using Fidelity's rules-based proprietary index methodology. Stocks in the universe are grouped together by country and sector (with certain broader groupings in the event of small sector and country combinations). Stocks are ranked within each group and given a composite score based on three fundamental characteristics: high dividend yield, low dividend payout ratio, and high dividend growth. Within each group, composite scores are adjusted to remove size bias. Stocks with the highest composite scores within each group are identified for inclusion in the index. The grouping methodology results in country weights that are comparable to but not exactly the same as the broader developed international equity market. Within each group, each stock is weighted based on its market capitalization in the broader equity market plus an overweight adjustment that is equal for all constituents within that group. Sectors are weighted relative to the broader developed international equity market depending on the yield characteristics of the sector. Sectors with higher dividend yields are overweighted, while those with lower dividend yields are underweighted. Effective December 11, 2025, derivative instruments that provide investment exposure to the investments above or exposure to one or more market risk factors associated with such investments are included in the fund's 80% policy, consistent with the fund's investment policies and limitations with respect to investments in derivatives.
