Before accepting an order or quoting a price to an overseas buyer, exporters should understand their complete shipment cost and expected profit margin.

Whether you are exporting your first shipment or handling regular international orders, accurate costing can help you avoid underquoting and protect your profit margin.
Export profitability depends on more than the purchase price of the product.
Depending on the shipment, exporters may need to consider product cost, packaging, inland transportation, freight, insurance, customs and CHA-related expenses, port charges, documentation, banking costs, exchange-rate effects and other applicable expenses.
The exact costs vary depending on the product, destination, Incoterm, shipment method, payment terms and transaction structure.
A simple way to understand export profitability is:
Export Profit = Export Revenue − Total Export Costs
Your total export costs may include the product cost and all applicable expenses required to prepare, ship and receive payment for the order.
Profit margin can then be expressed as:
Profit Margin = Profit ÷ Export Revenue × 100
Use the calculator above to estimate these figures for your shipment.
