There is no fixed standard for the calculation of the agency fee for customs clearance of exports to Central Asia, and it is usually affected by various factors. First of all, it is the type of goods. The customs clearance difficulties of ordinary goods and special goods (such as dangerous goods, animal and plant products, etc.) are different, and the agency fees are also different. The fees for special goods will be higher because the procedures are more complicated. Secondly, the quantity and value of the goods. A large quantity and high value may lead to a large amount of work in handling customs clearance documents, and the fees will increase accordingly. Moreover, the mode of transportation also has an impact. The customs clearance processes of sea transportation, land transportation, and air transportation are different, and the agency fees are different. The air transportation is fast but the customs clearance operation is more compact, and the fee may be higher. In addition, the specific customs clearance requirements and policy changes of the destination will also affect the agency fee. Generally speaking, professional agency companies like Zhongshitong will consider these factors comprehensively and give specific quotations.
It is recommended that you clarify the detailed information of the goods first and communicate with the agency company in order to obtain the accurate fee.

Some agency companies will charge according to the number of bills. No matter how many goods there are, there is a fixed price for one bill. However, it depends on whether the goods are relatively conventional. If they are more complicated, it may not be charged only according to the number of bills.

Sometimes the price will be set according to the complexity of customs clearance. For example, the customs clearance of documents is relatively simple, and the fee is low; if a lot of inspection and quarantine are involved, the fee will definitely be much higher.
