There is usually no fixed standard for the fees of export agency with tax refund advanced, and they can vary due to various factors. The common charging methods are by percentage and per order.
When charging by percentage, it is generally calculated based on the amount of exported goods, with the proportion being around 1% - 3%. For example, for goods with an export amount of $1 million, if the charge is 2%, the agency fee will be $20,000. This is mainly because the larger the amount, the more corresponding operational processes and risks involved.
Charging per order is relatively fixed, and it may be between 2,000 - 5,000 yuan per order, which is suitable for the situation where the export amount is small but there are frequent orders. In addition, different regions and different levels of business complexity will also affect the charges. For some special products, there may be more procedures involved, and the fees will be higher. When choosing, it is recommended to compare several agencies and comprehensively consider the service quality and fees.

Generally speaking, if the export value is relatively large, charging by percentage is relatively cost-effective; if the value is small and there are many orders, charging per order may be more appropriate. And when negotiating with the agency company specifically, there may be a chance to get a discount.

The fees are also related to the agency company's qualifications and experience. Companies with good qualifications and rich experience may charge slightly higher fees, but the service is guaranteed, and the tax refund process will be smoother.

Some agencies charge fees based on a certain percentage of the tax refund amount, but this situation is relatively rare. The approximate range is similar to that of charging by the percentage of the export amount.

In my opinion, in addition to the fees, service efficiency is also very important. Don't just focus on the low price. If the tax refund time is prolonged and the capital return is slow, it is not cost-effective.
