The handling fees for agent export customs declaration do not have a fixed standard and are usually affected by various factors. Firstly, the complexity of the goods has an impact. For example, the customs declaration of ordinary daily necessities is relatively simple, and the handling fees may be lower. If it is a special chemical product, because it involves more regulatory requirements, the handling fees will be higher. Secondly, the value and quantity of the goods are also related. Generally, if the value of the goods is high or the quantity is large, the handling fees may increase accordingly.
Taking Zhongshitong as an example, for common ordinary goods, the fee is charged per ticket, and the cost of one ticket of customs declaration is about 300 - 800 yuan. If calculated according to the proportion of the value of the goods, it is about 0.1% - 0.5% of the value of the goods. In addition, there are also differences in charges in different regions. In economically developed regions where the competition is fierce, the fees may be relatively lower. When choosing an agent, it is necessary to comprehensively consider its service quality, reputation, etc., and not just look at the price.
It is recommended that you consult several agent companies and make a decision after comparison.
