Declare as in list the items inside? I can do that but the value, I write myself? I still have the link to a few of the Kpop albums I bought which range to about RM10-RM20 each. Can I use it as a proof and base for the rest I bought? Do you know if photocards are taxable? Thank you!

declare.. just list the items you have and put value.. second hand items usually will be considered cheap.. anythng RM500+shipping should be fine..

I'm importing about 15-20 secondhand books from overseas and the cheapest shipping option is DHL. I'm a bit worried about whether it'll get stopped at custom.

I know importing books has no custom/sales tax but do they stop it if it's above RM500 including shipping or do they add the 'kos tambang dagangan' since I'm using courier?

Thanks a lot icon_rolleyes.gif

Government encourage reading, no tax on books, it will go thru without stops.

10%, to under declare will be an offence.. you want to bring proof of payment amount with you just in case they think you under declare and you will get tax base on market

Guys, I'm wondering if any of you can help me to determine how much tax will be imposed for the following car accessory from U.S. : Link

Seller quoted USD450 with DHL Shipping. I asked DHL about this and they referred me to this website, which I don't know how to use/navigate LOL.

Thanks in advance smile.gif

I saw many on Ebay, you might want to order there your self, if you dont have creditcard, you can always apply for cimb debit card for you paypal payment. Best to opt for something with tracking, it might take a month. Even from China might take 2 months, depends of your shipping service, EMS Shipping is as stated, slow. Happy online shopping.

I once bought a jacket from China. The surprising thing was it only took about a week
The company was using ABX.
