QUOTE(xymozz @ Apr 30 2011, 10:15 AM) hey guys just curious about the dealing of this phone If your phone is heldup at customs - you need to go to Shah Alam to apply Sirim permit around RM 250 and be prepare to pay at least 10% duty on invoice value. And count in the costs of you going to Shah Alam and than to present your docs to DHL etc to clear out . Than only DHL can sent out to you. Simply - you pay all the extra charges first before taking delivery. DHL can handle for you - but you will be charge for additional services and is not cheap ; someone quoted earlier RM 300 !! |

Uncle Benny, so the conclusion is : DHL can settle it if we pay extra service charge ?? right ?? |

those who drive thru singapore hardly get caught by the kastams.
my father looks like a malay, mayb thats why he always just gets a waive and we can pass thru easily at johor customs. but then again, i never see anyone got hold back in johor customs there before, not even 1 time i saw anyone, singapore customs got la, plenty of times. but if u r feeling very nervous, u can do this 10 boxes is pretty easy actually. store 3-4 in ur glove compartment, 2-3 down ur side passenger sit another 2-3 down ur seat. and if not enuf, behind passenger seats u have the middle compartment separating the 2 seats u can probably store 1-2 more. but the best part is i couldnt give a shyt about the box, u just give me the contents of the box with the phone i puas d. even more flexible.

Just pray don't get caught . If kena, You will be charge for tax evasion, undeclared dutiable goods, smuggling and most probably your car will be impoundedmy father looks like a malay, mayb thats why he always just gets a waive and we can pass thru easily at johor customs. but then again, i never see anyone got hold back in johor customs there before, not even 1 time i saw anyone, singapore customs got la, plenty of times. but if u r feeling very nervous, u can do this 10 boxes is pretty easy actually. store 3-4 in ur glove compartment, 2-3 down ur side passenger sit another 2-3 down ur seat. and if not enuf, behind passenger seats u have the middle compartment separating the 2 seats u can probably store 1-2 more. but the best part is i couldnt give a shyt about the box, u just give me the contents of the box with the phone i puas d. even more flexible. Back to the subject, the JB customs these days is really not strict - they rarely check thoroughly unless you looks suspicious and nervous. I have been going in=out Spore 2-3 times every month for the past 15 years - Most of the time, I get a wave through - I would say they are just too " lazy" to check. But I notice a common trend - any cars non Johore registered are usually check without fail ; minimum you have to open the boot. If one drives a 4WD - you will be asked to lift up the carpeted boot to show them the storage below it Added on April 30, 2011, 11:51 am QUOTE(alfredtwl @ Apr 30 2011, 11:22 AM) I have never used DHL to clear customs. The one time my stuff stuck, I just ask my forwarding friend in KL to help me clear it out. Of course DHL will levy additional charge to help you do all these extra work - they have to pay their runners to do it. Their charges is only for delivery to your doorstep. And I do believe it is not cheap - I said RM 300, which is from a forumer earlier who quoted this figure.This post has been edited by benny888: Apr 30 2011, 11:51 AM |
