The customs clearance fees for import agents are also related to the mode of transportation. The customs clearance processes for sea transportation and air transportation are different, and the fees are also different. The volume of sea transportation is large, the customs clearance operation is more complicated, and the fees are relatively high; the speed of air transportation is fast, the customs clearance time is short, and the fees may be lower.
