headphone normally is 5% import tax and 10% sales tax. Unfortunately you do get tax even thought you marked as gift

Depends on your luck. As for your invoice custom will only look at the actual value and not the discounted value. Sad to say but this is how it works unless your invoice is based on discounted value instead of full value.

sales tax 10% for t-shirst

If you are carrying a lot then they might charge you that if they caught you. Hardly see ppl get caught for hand carrying stuff (Except for illegal items)

If you do not have any invoice and you get caught they will normally work out a figure themselves that they think is reasonable.

Hire an agent for less hassle.

The location is somewhere in KLIA is not reachable unless you take a taxi

You should get a notification from poslaju/DHL/Fedex/UPS etc, just appoint them unless you have a big shipment.

3.86? are you sure? You can actually check the exchange rate for custom in this website. They change once a week. This week exchange rate is only 3.161

No it will based on CIF = Cost freight + insurance + cost of your items.

Yes pretty sure your friend going to get taxed. This will probably need a forwarder to help to clear it.

nope use the HS code 330499000

99 600 not 99 000 my mistake, next time is best just to key in the 4-6 digit number so you can see the rest.

Using 8528 51 000 not dutiable according to here

http://www.dutycalculator.com/hs-code-duty...8.51.0090/3664/

you can contact skynet if you sure that they are the one shipping for you. Normally is Poslaju

20% import tax 10% sales tax (plastic material)

calculation will based on insurance, cost transportation and your cost of your items


HS code should start with 6203
all should be 10% sales tax only.

I wouldnt bother to split it if I were you just calculate your shipping cost if you split it and compare it with your tax. You can ask seller to declare a bit lower value if you are worried.

try to call poslaju has all EMS is handled by them. They should be able to advise you.

10% sales tax if you are shipment got stuck in custom department.

Either you can appoint poslaju or you can clear it yourself at the KLIA custom department.

did you ask what is the reason your item is detained?

as i know walmart doesnt do international shipping...

electronic item will be charge 10% sales tax if not wrong. Item plus shipping more than RM500 mostly will be taxed unless you are lucky.

why not buy from local seller? the price should be around the same after included shipping cost

like I say it will be 10 sales tax. If you willing to risk it go ahead. Chances of getting taxed should be less since the console its not in a big shape.

Based on your description above it should be printed books.

maybe this link below will help

If you have the invoice from playasia there is nothing to be worried about.

as for the bolded words. Only custom can do that. (only if your parcel is huge)

dont worry too much

your invoice included shipping charges i never face this problem before. Shipping from US,UK and Japan and never got taxed with the extra charges like the topic you posted.

The only time I got taxed is from US due to the size even though my item cost around RM400. They declared RM600++
