The charges for export customs declaration by an agent usually consist of several parts. Firstly, there is the basic customs declaration fee. This part of the fee is relatively fixed, usually around a few hundred yuan, and is used for basic operations such as the declaration and entry of the customs declaration form. Secondly, there is the documentation fee, which is used for sorting out and preparing various documents required for customs declaration, ranging from about one hundred to a few hundred yuan.
In addition, there is the inspection fee. If the goods are randomly inspected by the customs, an inspection fee will be incurred, which depends on the actual situation of the inspection, such as the difficulty of the inspection, the complexity of the goods, etc. There are also some possible fees, such as port construction fees, security fees, etc. These fees are usually charged according to the value or weight of the goods.
The charges will also be affected by factors such as the type of goods, the mode of trade, and the customs declaration port. The supervision conditions of different goods are different, the difficulty of customs declaration is different, and so are the charges. The operation processes of different modes of trade such as general trade and processing trade are different, and the charges are also different. There are also differences in the regulations and charging standards of different customs declaration ports.

The charges for export customs declaration by an agent are related to the quantity of goods. If the quantity is large, the corresponding charges may be higher. For large quantities of goods, when the agent handles the customs declaration affairs, more manpower and material resources are consumed, and the charges will naturally be a bit higher.

Some agents will charge according to the value of the goods, usually a certain percentage of the value of the goods. If the value of the goods is high, the charges will also be high. However, this method is not very common. Most still adopt the mode of basic operation fees plus other fees.

If the exported goods need special treatment, such as commodity inspection, fumigation, etc., additional fees will be incurred. For example, wooden products often need fumigation, which will increase the cost.

The urgency of the customs declaration time also has an impact. If an expedited customs declaration is required, the agent company will charge an expedited fee.
