how bout import tax ( into malaysia ) ?

.

I want to ask if i order goods from China, how many percent they tax? or they tax by value of goods? I'm from Sarawak.

Not cars, computer stuff or electronic products.

I am to import 100pcs of Stainless Steel pendant with chain, I checked the Import tax is 10% and IF it will be stopped, where shall I go to claim?
The delivery address is to Kepong.

Anybody here tried to import LCD TV from US? What is the tax to pay here?

52 inch LCD in US about US$1800. In Malaysia, about RM24,000.

Is it worth the savings vs risk?

hi guys, I wanted to know if I import directly from japan some toys with CIF value less than MYR500.00,will I be taxed and duty? Please help...

can anyone answer my question or guide me on where to look? i've looked in ATHN Duties Order 2004 and Customs Duties Order 1996 but i can't find it. but i do know for a fact that football jerseys get taxed.

But I thought only with built in tuner got tax. If just plain LCD or plasma without tuner, got no tax. Bro, what is CIF?

thanks for your advice. The LCD in US got 2 types. First without tuner at all. I presume this has no tax in Malaysia. Second type got "HDTV" tuner. Is this considered a tuner in Malaysia since we got no HDTV?

I also notice those with tuners got many types of tuners, ATSC, DVB, NTSC, PAL, SECAM, QAM. Which one is considered tuner in Malaysia?

Watches are taxable items. 20% of the declared amount will be imposed.
Not taxable but might subject to get an AP approval from SIRIM

If I were to carry an electric guitar in my car back, will I be subject to sales tax?

According to custom's website, there was no mention (of sales tax or duties) under header 9202 or 9207

http://tariff.customs.gov.my/

I'd need to transport the guitar back in its shipping packaging because there is a notice that it cannot be open unless stored in room condition for 24h.
And also is there a limit to how many guitars I can bring back at a time in such a packaging?

The items are for personal use only and definitely not for resale.

checking with u guys...
if i come back from overseas trip by flight with IT hardware/ components of 20-30 units each item, will there be any tax?
my apology if got ppl already posted the same question 

sigh, my goods detained even for personal use! n the qty not tally with wat i ordered. can i sue the pharmacy for mishandling of my properties? i just wanna get back my stuffs.

the amount is less than wat i ordered. 10 items to be exact. but i can complain to BPA rite?

in such cases...i dunno wat to say...

does handphone accessories such as handsfree get taxed??

kinda piss off right now. ordered a second unit of GPS for personal use. last month received it sent via USPS Priority Mail without no problem. now kena tahan by customs. they need an invoice and AP permit. WTF?

weird thing is it should be Into Foreign Customs the Out Foreign Customs right? last time i checked it was cleared the another day it's still in proces by custom. i check for GPS unit cannot find any in the tarif code
UPDATED:

  Finally after went to custom office, i made some respect argument with the officer. Yes he said need to get AP but the AP is like RM 250? since it falls under telecommunication. Need to go sirim get the approval. after some long conversation with the officer, he just let me go and only "10% tax" . and the tax is off record. Without much choice left, i just paid him 10% tax to him to avoid those 'SIRIM' approval...

Ok, went to retrieved my items today at POS LAJU BAGAN DALAM, BUTTERWORTH.
There is where you collect your item that got detained by customs on the north region (I live at Sg. Petani, Kedah.)

The items retrieved are cosmetic product from Korea.
For cosmetic you need a notification letter from Ministry of Health to release them.

But for personal use no need the letter but the quantity of the product ordered cannot be more than 1 month usage.
How much is one month usage? Well that is to be determined by the pharmacy person

Mine was more than 1 month usage in quantity but since the pharmacy lady was so nice and in a good mood, she let me go with a warning that next time don't order to much at one time

The good news was my order was around RM700 in total but no tax was charge.

So I guess, cosmetic in the quantity of 1 month usage for personal use = NO TAX

Last time i bought RAM frm ebay USA, no tax was imposed coz it's computer part. But i want to know, if i bought corsair dominator ram, which comes together with RAM fan/cooler, is there any possibility that i have to pay tax??

Thanks in advance..

Got question isit tax applicable for purchase item or all import item (which I dont buy it)

A friend send me handphone as a gift but now holded @ Custom KLIA, what should I do now ?,

advise needed

I'm confused here. i want to buy a rm400 watch from us. i read someone said

watch is a taxable item(20%) but when i checked here

http://tariff.customs.gov.my/Default.aspx under heading watch there's no tax

at all? which one is true.

watches no need AP i think. i think AP needed for telecommunication product oh yes and LED bulb also. mine kena AP last time order LED bulb  (so stupid i think this AP thingy    )

importing computer parts like lcd monitor, printer need to have SIRIM AP approval ?? Didn't see any SIRIM label on most of the item i bought locally.  Does the AP pay 1 time only?? meaning if i import another same item again, no need for AP di?? 

Have a question.
Is it true buying/importing stuff from HK will not get tax?
I think I read it somewhere.

Or is it for certain items or certain weight only?

i bought 2 jersey from MU RM750. Now been held in custom. Was inform by UPS need to pay RM300 for tax.

If following the tariff code. only charge at Duty tax20% and sale tax 10%. Total is RM240 only.

Anyone kena b4 ? Any lubang to settle it ?

Please help.

Is buying skincare items from overseas allowed?

I remember seeing a thread posted by someone who was caught for buying "Rogaine." I know that Rogaine is a hair product but one of its component is classified as a drug by JKM so I guess that was why he was caught.

But for skincare products; how will I know whether customs will allow it?

^ Thanks for telling me.

Anyway mr. bbjslee, where did you get your knowledge from?

Hi there, I might plan to get something from Hong Kong, so I'd like to ask bout the possibility of custom tax?

The item is a toy action figure (around 30cm in height), less than RM100. From what I've read here so far, toys/action figure will not be taxable?

If for your own use... there is no need to pay for sales tax

Hi just wanna ask what's the tax rate for cigars and wine?
Do i need any special permit to bring in ?
Plan to get some fine cuban cigars online.

I am interested in getting an import license for a particular skincare brand. However, I am not an esthetician or dermatologist. What are the steps that I have to take in this case?
