If i'm shipping clothes from China taobao using courier, will there be any custom tax? if so what are the rate for clothes?

I tried before shipping phone + tablet and gadget accessories, there is no tax...

if quantity for personal use and below RM500, custom usually let it slide..

if for commercial purposes, don act smart and under declare it.. custom not stupid.. they can dispute the amount u declare and put in the amount they feel is correct...

check the SST & Duty here: http://tariff.customs.gov.my/
