I'm in Nanjing and recently have goods that need to be exported. I want to find a regular export agency company. But I'm not quite clear about the market situation and don't know how much a regular export agency in Nanjing generally costs. Is there anyone who knows about this aspect and can tell me about it? What is the charging standard for the fees? Is it based on the proportion of the value of the goods or is there a fixed charging mode? I hope you can explain it in detail. Thank you.

The fees of regular export agencies in Nanjing do not have a fixed standard and are usually priced based on a combination of multiple factors. Generally, there are two common charging methods: First, charge according to a certain percentage of the value of the goods. The proportion is approximately 0.5% - 2%. It specifically depends on the situation of the goods, trade terms, etc. For example, for goods with a value of 1 million yuan, if the agency fee is charged at 1%, it will be 10,000 yuan. Second, charge a fixed fee by shipment. One shipment may range from 800 to 3000 yuan. This method is suitable for businesses with lower value of goods but complex operation links. For some goods with small batches but requiring cumbersome documentation processing, charging by shipment is more appropriate. In addition, if some special services are involved, such as tax refund financing, etc., additional charges will be incurred. When choosing an agency, one should not only look at the price. The quality of service, professionalism, reputation, etc. are equally important.

It is recommended to consult several agency companies, compare the quotations and service contents, and combine your own business needs to select a cost-effective partner.

The export agency fees also depend on the type of goods. If it is the kind that requires special inspection and quarantine, the fees will be higher. And if the export destination is relatively remote and requires special transportation arrangements, the fees will also increase.

When negotiating the price with the agency, you can ask if there are any preferential packages. Some agencies will offer preferential treatment to customers who have long-term cooperation or large business volumes in order to attract customers.

Generally speaking, regular export agencies will charge according to the degree of difficulty of the operation. If the procedures are simple, the fees will be relatively low; if many certifications, licenses, etc. are involved, the fees will definitely be high.

I heard that some agencies will have hidden charges in addition to the basic agency fees in the customs declaration and logistics links. When looking for an agency, be sure to ask clearly about the details of each charge.

The international situation may also affect the export agency fees. During trade frictions, the agency fees may fluctuate. You should pay attention to these situations.

If the export volume is relatively stable, you can sign a long-term contract with the agency. Maybe you can strive for a more favorable price.

The fees of agency companies of different scales also vary. Larger companies may offer more comprehensive services but with slightly higher fees, while smaller companies may have lower fees but perhaps limited services.

The best answer points out that generally, the foreign exchange is first transferred to the agent's account. The agent handles export affairs, copes with foreign exchange risks, and complies with regulatory requirements. After deducting the fees, the remaining amount will be paid to the consignor.
