1. Air freight costs
Air freight costs include air freight first-leg freight, customs clearance fees, customs declaration fees, and other fees (trailer fees, document fees, etc.). The freight is calculated by weight, with a minimum starting volume limit (usually 5 kg). Customs clearance fees are calculated based on the number of pieces. For example, for the UK air freight business carried by 4PX, the agency customs clearance fee is 300 yuan/ticket, and the delivery fee is 2 yuan/kg. If the seller performs VAT (value-added tax) customs clearance by himself, the customs clearance fee is 1,200 yuan/ticket.
The air freight cost calculation formula is
Air freight cost = freight minus customs clearance fee + other fees
The calculation method of air freight for overseas warehouses is the same as that of first-leg logistics air dispatch transportation.
2. Ocean freight costs
Ocean freight can be divided into container LCL and container full container business.
Container LCL business is mainly for small goods. Usually, the goods of multiple sellers are placed in one container, and the freight is calculated based on the actual volume. The volume is calculated in layers, and the minimum shipping amount is 1 cubic meter.
The freight of the container full container business is calculated based on the number of containers.
The calculation method of overseas warehouse sea freight is the same as that of the first-leg logistics sea transportation.
