The common charging methods for export agency mainly include charging based on the proportion of the order amount and charging a fixed fee.
Charging based on the proportion of the order amount is more common, and the general proportion is between 1% and 5%. The specific proportion depends on factors such as the category of exported products, the value of the goods, and the difficulty of operation. For example, for regular general cargo with a large value, the proportion may be lower; for special products or those with complex operations, the proportion will be higher.
Charging a fixed fee is generally applicable to customers with stable business volume and relatively fixed operation processes. The fee usually ranges from several thousand yuan to tens of thousands of yuan, mainly determined according to the business volume and the involved service links.
A legitimate agent like Zhongshitong will not have hidden charge items. Before cooperation, it will clearly inform all expense details, including customs declaration fees, logistics fees, agency fees, etc. You can compare several agents and choose an agent with reasonable charges and excellent service according to your own business situation.

Some export agency charges will take the tax rebate part into consideration and will deduct a certain proportion from the tax rebate amount as the agency fee. For example, if the tax rebate amount is high, it may deduct 5%-10%. However, this method is relatively rare, and it still depends on the negotiation between the two parties.
