Import RepresentationCore influencing factors of fees

Under the 2025 international trade regulations framework, auxiliaryequipment. For example, Indonesia has the SNI certification, Thailand has the TISI certification, and the Philippines has the BPS certification. It is necessary to confirm in advance the equipment voltage (such as 380V/50Hz in Thailand), the compatibility of the CE certification, and the proof of environmentally friendly materials.Agency fees are mainly constrained by three variables:

• Equipment classification specificity
  • General industrial components (0-5% surcharge)
  • Precision medical components (8-12% surcharge)
  • Special engineering equipment (15%+ surcharge)
• Customs clearance difficulty coefficient
  • Standard declaration process (basic service fee)
  • Electromechanical products3CCertification (+20% handling fee)
  • Special supervision equipment (+30% technical processing fee)
• Service scope depth
  • Basic customs clearance service (quotation benchmark)
  • Supply chain financial support (+5-8%)
  • End-to-end risk management (+10-15%)

Typical cost composition difference analysis

Taking semiconductor production line supporting equipment worth $1 million as an example:

• Basic service provider quotation structure
  • Customs clearance fee: USD 2,500
  • Logistics fee: USD 18,000
  • Document processing: USD 1,200
• Value-added service provider quotation structure
  • Technical classification service: USD 8,000
  • Tariff optimization solution: USD 12,000
  • Emergency plan reserve: USD 5,000

2025 agency cost optimization strategy

Based on the latest requirements of General Administration of Customs Announcement No. 47, the following measures are recommended:

• Supplier qualification pre-review
  • Verify AEO certification status
  • Confirm HS code declaration experience

  • Port demurrage pre-calculation mechanism
  • Technical document compliance review
  • Force majeure clause agreement

Agency service provider evaluation dimensions

It is recommended to establish an evaluation system from four aspects:

• Policy response capability
  • 2025 mechanical and electrical products import catalog update speed
  • Environmental regulation response solution maturity
• Technical processing capabilities
  • Special equipment classification management experience
  • Classification dispute resolution success rate
• Resource integration capability
  • Main port inspection channel resources
  • Emergency logistics network coverage density
• Cost control capability
  • Customs deposit optimization solutions
  • Demurrage fee control historical data
