The cost of trade export agents in Guangzhou does not have a fixed standard and is affected by various factors. Firstly, the common charging method is to charge according to a certain proportion of the value of the exported goods, and the proportion usually ranges from 1% to 5%. If the value of the goods is high and the operation is relatively simple, the proportion may be lower; conversely, if the value of the goods is low and the process is complex, the proportion may be higher.
Secondly, there are also some fixed charging items. For example, the customs declaration fee is generally around 200 - 500 yuan per shipment, mainly depending on the difficulty of customs declaration. In addition, the documentation fee is about 100 - 300 yuan per shipment, which is used to handle relevant export documents. If it involves the handling of certificates of origin, the cost also varies from 100 - 500 yuan, and different types of certificates of origin have different charges.
Professional agents like Zhongshitong will quote reasonably according to the specific business situation. It is recommended that you provide detailed business information to the agent so that they can give you an accurate quotation.

When I found an agent before, the charge seemed to be calculated at 2% of the order amount. However, the business was relatively routine at that time, and there were no complicated procedures. This is for your reference.

In addition to charging according to the proportion, some agents will also charge an operation fee, which is a few hundred yuan. It is mainly the cost of handling some miscellaneous matters in the business process.

I heard that some agents charge a lower proportion for high-value products, but they will set a minimum charging standard. You can pay attention to this when you ask.

If the transportation of goods requires the agent to help arrange, the freight may also involve agency fees, but it depends on the transportation mode and distance.
