Hello guys. Referring to the malaysian custom link here,

http://www.customs.gov.my/en/ip/Pages/ip_pbft.aspx

there are many criteria for items that are allowed to be brought into the country tax-free.

Example point 1.1,   - only 1 new pair of shoes are allowed to be brought into the country tax-free.

Do u guys detach all of the tax-free receipts off your passports before reaching KLIA, or would that be too obvious?
*
ok, you are asking back to malaysia, yes, only 1 pair new shoe,
if you buy 2 pair, please wear one of them, then become 1 old, 1 new rclxm9.gif

leaving japan is another story.....

QUOTE(morningmorning @ Apr 17 2018, 01:48 PM)
from your experience the officers were not suspicious that you did not buy any tax-free item coming back from tokyo?
*
they will give you 2 receipt, 1 is attach in your passport, which you need detach it and put it in the basket in japan airport before clear immigration
another 1 is for your own keep, normally our customs officer won't check it.

mine still attached to the passport. I didn't remove it cause i want my passport to be filled with immigration chops and receipts laugh.gif

But back to the question on making purchase overseas, I am actually planning to help people to buy watches, shirts or some cosmetic stuff. As long as is sealed tight, that shouldn't be any issue right? hmm.gif
*
didn't remove it? no problem for next time visit to japan?

base on the law, clothes cannot exceed 3 pairs, haha
depend your luck, if they really check your stuff, no choice have to pay tax
but i think better don't exceed for alcohol & cigarettes

I think, Japan airport custom don't kacau, but mostly OUR local custom may be a trouble. I had a few boxes of Gundam (MG), I went through without any problem (they don't even look at me!). But I did hear some stories, depending on luck, kena kacau from our local custom. In fact, I was told that they do have the rights to check and they are supposed to check, too, yeah? Just that most of the time, if not always, they kacau because they wanted duit kopi. That's all.

Mmmmm, I wonder if their Mavic Air is cheaper over there in Osaka.  hmm.gif
*
i also brought gundam in japan, but mine one is RG
any shop got most discount? last time i bought in BIC camera original price is 2500 yen in the box, but price tag is 1980 yen(exclude tax), extra discount 7%(visa)
i using FCB credit card, extra 2% on final price

Bandai. Yes.

Back to Japan. I find that Den Den Road in Osaka tend to be cheaper than in Tokyo. But you'll have to find them, small shops, not those BIC or Yodoyabashi.

I am going on June this year. Another 1 and half months left. Trying to plan places to go since I have already been Tokyo once. This time will be going to Ikebukuro and some other places that I have not visited previously. Skipping Ginza cause it is too expensive to even look at it. laugh.gif

Don't own any FCB card. But I believe tourist do have discount if is using credit card. Last year when I purchased my Casio watch, they gave me 5% off for using VISA card, and additional 2% for metro card. Entitled 7% off from total bill. laugh.gif Better than nothing lol
*
just additional info for you, FCB card can get any discount on final price

example in BIC camera, 1000 yen, you will get 7% off if pay by VISA, final price 930 yen, still can get 10% off on 930 yen, final become 837 yen

anyway, your switch cannot get 7% or 5% discount in BIC camera pay by VISA
T&C already mention Nintendo Switch in the exclude list

but i think still can enjoy tax free
