I've helped customers to import both watches and laptops.
No duty & tax on both items.
No permit or what so ever required.
Watches Tariff Code:
9101 Wrist-watches, pocket-watches and other watches, including stop-watches, with case of precious metal or of metal clad with precious metal.
- Wrist-watches, battery or accumulator powered, whether or not incorporating a stop-watch facility:
9101 11 000 - - With mechanical display only UNT (1) Nil Nil
9101 12 000 - - With opto-electronic display only UNT (1) Nil Nil
9101 19 000 - - Other UNT (1) Nil Nil
- Other wrist-watches, whether or not incorporating a stop- watch facility:
9101 21 000 - - With automatic winding UNT (1) Nil Nil
9101 29 000 - - Other UNT (1) Nil Nil
- Other:
9101 91 000 - - Electrically operated UNT (1) Nil Nil
9101 99 000 - - Other UNT (1) Nil Nil
Nil, Nil means Nil for import duty, and Nil for sales tax
I really can't be more relieved after seeing this, however are you 100% there are no permits (SIRIM AP) or whatsoever required for laptops? Does this also mean my item won't be detained by the Customs then? I bought a laptop by the way (Cost me $1299.00 USD + $129.00 in shipping). I would jump off a building if I am still asked to pay more for clearance...No duty & tax on both items.
