QUOTE(owikh84 @ Mar 27 2010, 08:32 AM) In the event that you need to import a "questionable item" falling under the "Telecommunications Category", you may need to consider two (2) factors : (a) AP (Approved Permit) from SIRIM, & (b) Import Tax mine using DHL...last time buying phone from US...no need sirim permit..(a) Import Permit (aka AP, Approved Permit, SIRIM Permit, JK69, etc) -Buy JK69 Form from any SIRIM branches in Malaysia -Print out the JK Form legibly -Since the model you're bringing in has not been certified (Type Approval Application) by SIRIM, you have to list it as "Sample for Testing" -SIRIM charges a nominal fee of either RM30 (permit would be ready for collection after 3 days) or RM60 (permit can be collected within 24 hours) (b) Import/Customs Tax -Classification/Declaration on the Importation Form (whichever courier company you used) is important. -PDAs would not be taxed. -Mobile phones would be taxed 10% -GSM/Phone PDA is subjective (chances of tax is there) So in total tax + SIRIM = 10% + RM30 or RM60 only Most international couriers such as Fedex, or DHL etc CAN assist you with the release of the product(s) - aka as Direct Release = No Tax. UPS Express has the tendency to declare everything and you would be taxed. but this time custom asked for permit and i have checked DHL tracking, apparently they have tried 2 times to clear the custom but still failed. for DHL, they required us to prepaid the taxes which is 10% of the goods value. if applying for sirim permit is too much of a hassle and cost too much i'd rather ask DHL to return the phone and claim the refund Added on March 27, 2010, 10:38 am QUOTE(owikh84 @ Mar 27 2010, 08:32 AM) In the event that you need to import a "questionable item" falling under the "Telecommunications Category", you may need to consider two (2) factors : (a) AP (Approved Permit) from SIRIM, & (b) Import Tax thanks for your info but i'm still confused which one is right..some people said cost RM200, some people said RM350.(a) Import Permit (aka AP, Approved Permit, SIRIM Permit, JK69, etc) -Buy JK69 Form from any SIRIM branches in Malaysia -Print out the JK Form legibly -Since the model you're bringing in has not been certified (Type Approval Application) by SIRIM, you have to list it as "Sample for Testing" -SIRIM charges a nominal fee of either RM30 (permit would be ready for collection after 3 days) or RM60 (permit can be collected within 24 hours) (b) Import/Customs Tax -Classification/Declaration on the Importation Form (whichever courier company you used) is important. -PDAs would not be taxed. -Mobile phones would be taxed 10% -GSM/Phone PDA is subjective (chances of tax is there) So in total tax + SIRIM = 10% + RM30 or RM60 only Most international couriers such as Fedex, or DHL etc CAN assist you with the release of the product(s) - aka as Direct Release = No Tax.
