There is no fixed standard for the import agency fees in Chengdu. They are affected by multiple factors. Firstly, it is the type of goods. For example, for ordinary daily necessities and high-value electronic products, the difficulty of agency operations is different, and the fees also vary. Secondly, it is the value of the goods. Generally, it is charged according to a certain proportion of the value of the goods, and the proportion is approximately 1% - 5%. Thirdly, it is the service content. The fees will naturally be different for only handling customs clearance and for providing a full set of services including transportation, warehousing, etc.
For example, if importing a batch of ordinary food worth 100,000 yuan, if the agency company charges at 3%, the customs clearance agency fee alone will be 3,000 yuan. If it is also required to transport to the designated warehouse, the transportation fee will be calculated separately according to the distance and transportation mode. Regular agency companies like Zhongshitong will have no hidden charges and will explain each fee in detail before charging. It is recommended to compare several companies when looking for an agent to clarify the service and fee details.
