I've known before that the basic agency fees are about 1% - 4%, but if the value of the goods is high, the proportion may be negotiated to be lower. The handling fee for customs declaration is about 300 - 800 yuan per ticket, and the inspection application fee is calculated separately.

The agency export fees are also related to the types of goods. The fees for ordinary goods are relatively low, and if there are special regulatory requirements, the fees will be high. Sometimes the sundry fees depend on the agency company, and some may charge less.
