There is no fixed standard for the import agency fee in Taiyuan. It is usually affected by various factors. First, the type of goods. The agency fee for common daily necessities may be lower than that for special goods. Second, the value of the goods. Generally, it is charged at a certain percentage of the value of the goods. For example, when the value of the goods is low, it may be charged according to the basic fee per order. When the value of the goods is high, the agency fee may be charged at about 1% - 5%. Third, the trade method. There are differences in fees for different methods such as general trade and processing trade.
For your import of common daily necessities with a small quantity, if the value of the goods is 100,000 - 200,000 yuan, an agency company like Zhongshitong may charge an agency fee of 3,000 - 8,000 yuan. If the value of the goods is higher, it will be charged according to the proportion. In addition, some agency companies may also charge miscellaneous fees such as document fees and customs declaration fees, and each item may be several hundred yuan. The specific fee still needs to be communicated in detail with the agency company, and the price will be set according to your actual business situation.

The import agency fee is also related to the quantity of goods. The higher the quantity, the relatively higher the agency fee. Generally, if it is calculated by the number of pieces, each piece may be charged several tens of yuan. However, the specific amount also depends on the regulations of the agency company.
