is ipod taxable from overseas?

Is it taxable if we bring in toys/collectible toys from oversea?

thanks

Hi I tried that method. It doesn't work. Apparently the reference number only works inside of United State but not when the parcel is out of US? It keep saying there's no record of this item 

how about digital product like handphone or pda or digital screen ?
is it taxable?

I bought a DVD boxset and some clothes and it was supposed to be shipped together from US two months ago using USPS Priority Mail but its still not here. Is there any chance custom is holding it? I didnt get any letter yet and I am worried now :[

Hi owikh84, the charges of RM215 for AP, is it fix? Normally how Sirim calculate the AP charges?

Coz, I just bought a PDA phone from oversea and sending in by courier, it was hold back by custom and was told to get the AP.

I paid RM350 for the AP and processing charges of RM18.  I wonder why my AP charges so high as compare to what u mentioned? Or I have been chop kau kau by Sirim

Totally no idea with the custom duty / sales tax for mobile phone, can anyone assist me on this? Checked custom tariff website type in "mobile phone", "handphone", "handset", "telefon bimbit" comes out nothing or not the one I'm looking for.

Help needed, thanks

your idea would phailed miserably, trust me. even if you asked the seller to smash the phone into bits/dunk it into the toilet bowl/feed it to the dog before it was posted out, if it's a phone, kastam will definately ask you to obtain a SIRIM AP and afterward tax you 10%
yes, it will be "tahan-ed". kastam will call you up and ask you to come personally to collect your phone from POS LCCT. you'll need to open the parcel in front of the OIC for inspection. afterward, they'll hand you a form that you need to bring along to SIRIM Shah Alam. it'll cost you RM200 and 3~4 waiting days to obtain your AP. once the AP is ready, you'll have to collect it from SIRIM and head back to LCCT for clearance. they will tax 10% of the item cost. the grand total that you have to fork out (minus the hassle of travelling like a mad dog + waste of petrol and time) is :-

RM200 (~SIRIM AP) + RM100 (~10% Tax of USD300) = RM300+/-

hi all, want some advice here

last time i bought a soundcard from ebay with the help from a LYN forumer, the item arrived & i have to collect them at the post office in Pending, Kuching. so i met the kastam lady..since it was afternoon & looks like thse ladies in their lazy mood (luckily this kastam lady i'm dealing with is the same race as me...so we chit chat a little) while she instructed me to open the box...but my luck was at my side that time. she said just pretend to open the box to declare content....but actually i never opened it! so i lepas lah (not sure soundcard/computer parts is taxable or not)

Buying Clothes from UK but under Rm500 also won't kena tax? 

anyone can tell me how to apply for SIRIM AP permit??
can apply online or not...
i ordered phone from US and DHL called me asking for SIRIM permit.

how much it cost?

I bought PDA phone from HK few months back, and was hold back by custom and was told to apply the AP from Sirim.

Went to Sirim and filled up a form and paid RM350/= for the AP.  It is very simple, they will give u a sample form as reference, u just follow the sample to fill up the application form.  The following day, I called up Sirim and inform them my file no and over the phone they give me my AP no and with that AP number, I went to custom to clear the item. And settle everything without any problem.

Initially I though they will require the device for testing or what, but surprisingly no one request the device from me during my present at Sirim office and also when I called up for the AP no.

BUT, roughly one month after I cleareed the item and are happily using it, I rcv a letter from Sirim saying that my application still pending due to I did not submit the device for testing...   

I wonder why I rcv this letter from Sirim, and if really the procedure that Sirim require the device for testing before approving and issuing the AP, then why in the first place they approved it and issued the AP to me without testing the device    weird weird weird .... or maybe that is what we call Malaysia Boleh     

Anyway, just to share my experience...
