No time to look through the entire thread but if your item is valued at US$900, are they gonna expect you to pay 5%/10%/25% tax in US dollars too? And if the item is shipped via FedEx, etc, do you still have to collect it yourself at customs or will FedEx appoint an agent to deal with them?

I think for any import items above RM500, there will be import tax being charged. Usually taxed between 10%-50% of the total amount, it depends.
Unless total amount below RM500, it may be exempted.  smile.gif

nope, not all, a month back I bought a Laptop for RM3300, there was no tax, but due to high value item, declaration needed. cost about RM18 for the letter.
