There is no fixed standard for agency import customs clearance fees, and they will vary due to various factors. Firstly, there is the basic agency fee, which is generally charged at a certain proportion of the value of the goods, usually around 1%-3%. Assuming the value of the goods is $100,000, the agency fee may be between $1,000 and $3,000.
Secondly, there is the customs declaration fee. The customs declaration fee for one shipment of goods is approximately between 300 and 800 yuan. For the inspection application fee, if inspection application is required, the fee is generally between 200 and 500 yuan.
There are also transportation, storage and other fees. For transportation, it depends on the distance. The domestic short-distance transportation of a small container may cost between 1,000 and 3,000 yuan. The storage fee is calculated by day or by area, and it may be 0.5 - 2 yuan per square meter per day. In addition, the taxes and fees are calculated based on the value of the goods after the tax rate is determined according to the HS code of the goods. For the ordinary electronic products you are importing, the specific fees still need to be calculated in combination with the actual situation.
