i have previously posted the links to the neccessary customs regulation and act relevant to us. its in this thread perhaps u can search for "customs" etc.
Discussion on this shouldnt boil over to become a discussion on "how to avoid taxes" like lowering values etc - all this are stricly illegal in the sense. So any discussion should be within legal confines if not the mods will likely take action to stop it. So its a fine line, but yah, trust me when I say I know for a fact that alot of malaysians do not know their rights. I dont either so its a learning process everyday

but if u read the customs tariffs again, one which was rightly pointed out by one of the forummers - tax will stil be inmpoised if it wasnt shipped to Malaysia directly ie it goes pass Singapore or other countries prior to reaching us here. Again, grey area, so sometimes this may be applicable instead in overiding the general tariff guidelines.
Also, the guidelies are subject to changes anyway so have to keep going back to the customs website to see if any changes have been gazetted. They can rightly reduce or increase the amount.
yeah true. thats the problem with malaysians. they are quite ignorant at times.
thats why it's good that forums like these help share the knowledge with one another.
knowledge is power.
so dont let ppl take advantage of you.
well the customs website is typically a malaysian styled website. no updates and badly designed.
i can complain on and on and on.......... but then thats all i have to say

well i'm not suggesting doing anything illegal.
haha but if u wanna do it, go ahead.
just be prepared for the consequences la.
do illegal stuff sure got "payback" wan ma
