Recently i just bought goods mainly apparel from UK. today i received email from DHL parcel pending tax clearance. I understood mine worth more than RM1k as per invoice and current exchange rate but what I dont understand is the exchange rate used by Customs as of 6/6/2011 for calculating sales tax is 1 Pound = RM6.4842. If they used rate like 1 Pound = RM5.1 or RM5.2, I still consider it acceptable.

Does any of you happen to face this kind of outdated exchange rate used by Customs?

oh shi.... will counter and make e-complaint in custom website later.

bro, usually whats the different between current rate and customs rate that you normally charged by customs?
for eg. current rate USD$1=RM3, custom rate USD$1=RM3.1?
