There is no fixed standard for the charges of freight forwarding for goods export, which will be affected by various factors. First of all, it is the value of goods. Usually, the agency fee will be charged according to a certain proportion. For example, when the value of goods is relatively low, the proportion may be around 3%-5%; when the value of goods is high, the proportion may drop to 1%-3%. Secondly, the type of goods also has an impact. The charges for ordinary goods are relatively low, while for special goods such as dangerous goods, due to the complex operation and high risks, the charges will be higher. Moreover, different service contents result in different charges. If only the customs declaration service is provided, the cost may range from several hundred yuan to two thousand yuan; if one-stop services such as booking shipping space, transportation, and warehousing are included, the charges will be higher. In addition, there are also differences in charges in different regions. For example, in some coastal port cities, due to fierce competition, the prices may be relatively low. In conclusion, the specific fees need to be communicated in detail with the agency company and determined according to your actual needs.

Generally speaking, the agency fee for simple customs declaration is probably a few hundred yuan. If some simple document processing is added, it may be a few hundred yuan more. If the goods are more complicated and involve special documents, the cost will increase.
