QUOTE(nanakopy87 @ Nov 13 2009, 10:26 AM) if de seller use DHL bla bla bla,DHL will send to you.if no,then post office will handle your parcel.1k figure might kena tax.if kena,they will call u or send u a 'love letter' .then u need to go kastam there settle  QUOTE(nimrod2 @ Nov 13 2009, 12:44 PM) according to the law, personal items of less than rm500 cannot be taxed. thnx 4 da information.. so make sure u know your rights. but do be careful because the customs will use their own exchange rate when calculating. so to be safe, keep it slightly less than rm480. for your case, i'm not sure whether your item can be tax free. there are some items that arent taxable no matter what the amount i think. that u have to check with the customs. safest way to play it would be to check with them, or split your shipments into two.  ..i juz notice at da front page da figure tax is 5% instead of 10% before..isit true?..so i dun mind..i oni scare my item sangkut at customs there..  ..coz my item below 1k..but exceed rm500..so thnx again..  split shipment will cost me alot..  |

chg question..wan 2 ask bout tax..how does its charge? if da seller use combine shippin..does it kena tax? example..1 parcel/box amount rm400..2nd amount rm350..does customs plus them both in order 2 charge tax? coz i heard they will charge tax 4 1 box dat da amount exceed rm500..
so if they charge..da tax is : (% x 400) + (% x 350) = ... or % x (400+350) =... im abit confius now..  This post has been edited by Blurrysky: Dec 5 2009, 10:43 PM |
