Normal earphone will not held by custom. Unless it's wireless headphone, if very unfortunate kena held. You will need to pay Sirim RM107.60 + 6% of duty to custom from USD24 (depend the value your declare).

DHL did charge a small fees for managing items release from Custom as well. Around RM55. Fedex doesn't.

thats crazy expensive, total all that is the same amount as my future to be earphone..i did plan to buy wireless earphone..

It's. With GST, Clearance fees and sirim Suggest you buy it locally if it's not super cheap, to avoid the hassle.

Hi, I ordered a custom ergonomic keyboard from US company, shipped from Hong Kong via Aramex. Paid RM1700++ for it, so I expect Customs will want to hold it when it gets here.... Will I need to go through the SIRIM runaround too?

Edit to add: Normal USB connectivity, no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, but the design is pretty unique (sort of butterfly shape lol) and definitely isn't anything commonly seen here. Maybe I should worry Customs thinks it's something else other than a keyboard lol

If you have the time just drop by to sirim office at shah alam. Explain to them what item you bought. If your item dont have any wireless or bluetooth connectivity then the charge should be below rm100 for the permit.

once submit the application, how long will it take for approval?

If you go to their office lets say in the morning, by noon can get the permit already or within 24 hours period. If through email then like other members here said around 3-4 working days.
