QUOTE(azmann33 @ Nov 11 2009, 04:53 PM) Just go and see them..bring along invoice of the price given to you by supplier ( in case the supplier did not put it in the parcel) Yes, will see them tomorrow. The total amount is less than RM500 (About RM200) but why they want to retain it and don't want to release it and require me to go since the items are mouse, keyboard, VGA cable only and all are with 1 quantity only.becareful..sometimes you are trap..your supplier put invoice in it stating "a price" and you bring another invoice stating different price...  But if your goods total less than RM500,no tax will be charged.  It was held by custom yesterday but I only see the update now: 10-Nov-2009 10:41 Item held by custom for inspection. High - value goods Damn... USD57 is considered as high value? The supplier did attach the invoice la... The poslaju asked me go there personally.... i thought they will release after inspect or I should go there? This post has been edited by jack2: Nov 11 2009, 08:07 PM |

QUOTE(AskarPerang @ Nov 11 2009, 10:16 PM) You have to collect your item from the kastam. The item is with my local custom office. The problem is it is held by custom. How could I call them to send to nearest pos office to collect since I have called pos office but they asked me to go there. If not, give them a call and they will send the item to the nearest pos office for you to collect. But you have to pay them for the pos laju delivery charges.  |

Case was settled after went there, inspecting the goods by officer and waited to bring in to let valuer officer to check in computer system.It was held by custom yesterday but I only see the update now: 10-Nov-2009 10:41 Item held by custom for inspection.

The poslaju asked me go there personally.... i thought they will release after inspect or I should go there? No tax and took back. Wasted 1 hour there. I am wondering that every package that couriered from overseas must be retained by custom? Or they see the declaration form as electronic products and they will retain it? |

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 The seller advises me to use EMS and it will not be problem when come to custom.. but if DHL or UPS, he is unsure... I wonder how true is true.The strange thing is, if by UPS or DHL, the freight fee is more cheaper and faster to arrive. But if using EMS, it is slow and expensive. Why and why? |
