sorry to ask the same question. but i still dont understand about handphone tax. eq. if i buy hp at uk for 80 pound @ rm 500++. someone said that the tax is 10% rite? 10% from what price? do we have to stat the price when mailing? then they take 10% from the written price? what if i write the handphone price rm 100 when posting? and also, what if i declare my parcel as gift? also kn tax?
yes the tax is 10%
About this i also no idea
better declare ur parcel as gift ~
u write the price they also didnt believe de

if u put less they will say u cheat them
they will put whatever price that they like or they feel suitable for the tax lor
the important is the staff ~ they can help u low the price ~
can talk to them ~ they are very friendly ~
(i mean the staff in room 2)
the kastam ppl with uniform very
better do tax in room 2 and then let the kastam check then take the payment which shop by kastam and pay ~
================================================================================
Hp tax not very expensive ~
the most thing i dis like is need go shah alam (SIRIM) to get permit to import
the permit almost RM210 ++ need 3 working day to do for u
but in malaysia , u can take the permit in less than 2 hour

buy need pay RM30 for process fee
================================================================================
One thing i can tell u ~
If ur uk have friends better tell them to change the Hp cover to u ~
Change the cover with abit rosak one ~ then they will tax u less
The hp look more old the price will more less ~
================================================================================
But that time i go there the kastam ppl tell me ~
Hp tax very less de ~ they wouldnt charge much
================================================================================
My Toshiba W41T charge RM10 only for the tax
But Sirim (Permit to import) need pay RM250 ++
================================================================================
And final ~
About the Hp things the staff in room 2 told me better take myself ~
because if u call postman come to take ~
the kastam will charge more and maybe your hp will kena tahan and cannot get ~
That mean ~ when u kena tax better go settle urself ~
U can get more cheap with call the staff to help u ~
