There is no fixed standard for the fees charged by Shaxi proxies for export tax rebate services. Two main charging methods are commonly used.
One method is to charge a certain percentage of the rebate amount, typically ranging from 3% to 8%. For example, if the rebate amount is 100,000 RMB, a 5% fee would amount to 5,000 RMB. Under this method, the higher the rebate amount, the higher the proxy fee.
The other method is per-order charging, usually ranging from 800 to 3,000 RMB per order. If your company has small-scale operations with low-order amounts, per-order charging might be more economical. For large-scale businesses with high rebate amounts, percentage-based charging could be more favorable. Additionally, fees may vary among different proxy agencies due to differences in service quality and professionalism. It's advisable to consult multiple agencies and compare before making a decision.

When I hired a proxy for export tax rebate, they charged per order—800 RMB for small orders and 2,000 RMB for large ones. It felt quite reasonable, as it gave me a clear cost expectation.

Many proxies seem to charge within the 3% - 8% range, but it also depends on negotiations with the agency. Some might offer discounts.

I heard that if the rebate amount is exceptionally high under percentage-based charging, the proxy fee could also be substantial, so careful consideration is needed.

Per-order charging is more straightforward—no matter the rebate amount, the fee is fixed per order, which suits companies with stable business.

Don’t just focus on price when choosing a proxy; service quality matters too. Some proxies may charge less but have lower efficiency.
