There is no fixed standard for Wuhan import and export agency fees, which are usually determined by multiple factors. First, it is the type of goods. The agency fees for general goods and special goods (such as dangerous goods) are different. Special goods have higher fees due to their complex operation and high risk. Second, it is the value of goods. Generally, it is charged at a certain proportion of the value of goods, and the proportion range is roughly 1% - 5%. The higher the value of goods, the lower the proportion may be. Third, it is the service content. If only customs declaration and inspection are done, the fee is relatively low; if one-stop services such as logistics and warehousing are included, the fee will increase. In addition, the size of the business volume also has an impact. For long-term and large-volume business cooperation, the agency company may offer discounts. Taking Zhongshitong as an example, for simple customs declaration and inspection of general goods, the fee per ticket may be 800 - 1500 yuan; if a full set of services including booking and transportation is included, the fee needs to be calculated according to the actual situation. Usually, regular agency companies do not have hidden fees and will clarify all charges before cooperation.

When I found an agency before, it was charged according to the proportion of the value of goods, about 2%. You can ask several more agencies for quotes.

If it is just a simple customs declaration, the fee is not much, just a few hundred yuan. But if many links are involved, the fee will definitely be high.

I heard that some agencies charge differently according to the import and export destinations. The farther the place, the higher the fee.

It also depends on the weight and volume of the goods. Goods with large volume and heavy weight may also have higher fees.

Sometimes, if the quantity is small, the agency may charge according to the minimum charging standard, regardless of the value of goods.
