There are mainly two common calculation methods for the agency fee for export tax rebate.
First, it is charged according to a certain proportion of the export amount. Usually, this proportion ranges from about 0.8% to 3%. The specific proportion depends on various factors, such as the complexity of the export business and the type of goods. For example, for regular products with a simple business process, the proportion may be lower; if it involves special goods or complex trade terms, the proportion may be higher.
Second, it is calculated according to a certain proportion of the tax rebate amount, generally with a proportion of 10% - 20%. For businesses with a high tax rebate amount, the agency fee will be relatively high in this way.
In addition, some agency companies may also charge a fixed basic service fee, for example, ranging from several hundred yuan to several thousand yuan per time, plus the fee calculated according to the proportion. At the same time, if the export enterprise has complete documents and well-prepared materials, the agency fee may be discounted; conversely, if the agency company needs to spend more energy on sorting out the materials, the cost may be increased.

Some agency companies charge by order. Regardless of the export amount and the tax rebate amount, they charge a fixed amount per order, such as 1000 - 3000 yuan, which is suitable for situations with a small business volume and stable unit value.

I heard that some agents consider the cooperation duration. Long-term cooperation will get preferential treatment, such as in the form of an annual fee, charging 20,000 - 50,000 yuan a year, covering the annual export tax rebate agency service.
