Importation of cosmetic/pharmaceutical related products is complicated to be settled if you don't know the procedures to import it here, especially in large quantity.
You can get the info in Pharmaceutical Services MOH website;

Hi, need some advice here.

I wanted to buy some apparels since Levis are having good sales. Total cost is $83 USD including shipping. Would tax be applicable to the purchase as I've heard below RM 500 is exempted from tax. Would love to hear from anyone who has experience this before.

Thanks.  smile.gif

Need specific description of the items you want to buy, website link of the items that you want to buy is most preferred. Never hope too high your items will not be taxed because under RM500, customs will use 'minimum freight charges' for shipping charges which looks too low.

Hi thanks for the quick reply.
Our plan was to buy and ship to our dropshipper who will then combine some of our other goods which have arrived at the warehouse. Other goods are a Watch and a Rayban sunshade.
We plan to buy 2 pair of Jeans which Levis have been selling and combine with a 30% coupon on top of the existing 25% sales, it's very cheap.
http://us.levi.com/family/index.jsp?catego...shopmens_022513

Approximately 83 USD to ship to address in US and from US combined with all items, including insurance would be around $45 to ship from warehouse to Malaysia.

Total items would be:
Watch - 59 USD
Rayban Glass - 159 USD
Levis - 83 USD
Shipping to Malaysia - 50 USD

Looking forward to your advice.  biggrin.gif

Sunglasses (900410): tax & duty 0%.
Wrist watch (heading 9101): tax & duty 0%.
Jeans/trousers from cotton;
for men/boy (620342): total tax 10%
for women/girl (620462): total tax 10%.

Just make sure your shipper/freight forwarder enter the correct HS Code (heading & subheading).
