administrative charges
Office processing costs
Administrative charges are fees imposed to cover the cost of processing, handling, or managing a transaction or service.
Banks add administrative charges to loans, landlords include them in lease agreements, and institutions tack them onto bills for paperwork and record-keeping.
The term often appears when organizations want to recoup overhead costs without itemizing specific services: The invoice included a $50 administrative charge.
