how they count the rate?? by weight??
then what about tax??

Did you mean for Poslaju? Well, to be honest it depends on your luck. Some officers are really kind to accept your parcel as a "document" and it will be cheaper, else if you are having bad luck, they will count using volumetric system which length, wide and height will be counted as well.

OK, for example. Your parcel is 5 KGs and L=70cm, W= 20cm, H=30cm. If using the volumetric system, it goes like this:

70x20x30
------------
6000 (fixed value)

= 7KGs

And, 7 KG will be counted not 5KGs.

The price for first 0.5KG to be posted within Peninsular Malaysia is RM 4.50, the GTS tax is 5% which is RM 0.25 and fuel surcharge is 10% and it is RM 0.45. Total is RM 5.20
For Peninsular to Sarawak is RM 6.50, after 5% GTS and 10% fuel surcharge, it will cost RM 7.50.
For Peninsular to Sarawak is RM 7.00, after 5% GTS and 10% fuel surcharge, it will cost RM 8.05.

Hope this helps. Anyhow, you can refer to here for the rate.

You are unlucky then. sad.gif As I mentioned earlier, some will close one eye and assume yours as "document".
Anyhow cheapest rate is not RM 4.50, that is before taxes but after calculated everything, it is RM 5.20. Refer to my post up there. wink.gif

Last time I sent a package, they say it was over 30cm (in whatever dimension), so had to calculate by volume......

Sorry for the late reply. Public holidays have no postage service that includes Labour Day. smile.gif
And this Saturday is the first Saturday for the month, so they won't be any service on that day. They only off for first Saturday. smile.gif

It depends on the weight and if you are using box, they will count based on volumetric formula.
Anyhow, I have posted this information here, hope it clears your doubt. smile.gif
