Can a Malaysian working or studying abroad bring back vehicle/car to Malaysia. What are the conditions?

Effective 18 September 2000, several criteria have to be met by any Malaysian studying or working abroad in applying for an import licence (AP) to bring back his vehicle. The criteria are:

    *

      Applicant must be legally staying abroad for a minimum of one year.
    *

      The vehicle must be registered and insured under the applicant's name for at least nine months.
    *

      Applicant has a valid driving licence (temporary/probationary licence not accepted).
    *

      Applicant returns to Malaysia permanently after completing his study or working stint overseas.

Individuals not conforming to the above criteria are advised not to bring back their vehicles. Otherwise, MITI will not be responsible to approve the import licence, even though the vehicle has arrived in Malaysia. Most probably, The Royal Customs and Excise Department of Malaysia will take legal action against the owner of the vehicle who imported it without AP.

This regulation applies to:

    *

      Government officers who further their studies overseas.
    *

      Malaysian students overseas.
    *

      Malaysian citizens who work and stay overseas.
    *

      Husband, wife and children of staff serving the Malaysian Embassies/High Commissions and representatives.

The applicant has to apply by completing Form J.K. 69. This form can be purchased from Percetakan Nasional Malaysia Berhad, Kuala Lumpur or any of its branches. Completed applications, together with relevant supporting documents, must be submitted to the Ministry of International Trade and Industry, Kuala Lumpur.

AP is PERMIT to bring in the car, just a yes to bring it home. Tax is another story altogether.

because they sold it overprice

actually they miss used the AP,
AP is only for ppl working/studying overseas to bring back the car,
''dunno how'' the car deallers can get so many AP
as i know 1 person only can have 1 AP,

last time i heard they sell the AP for RM10k for 1,

so the cost of the car in overseas is cheap,and the TAX for AP car is only 140% above where the GOV normally tax 400% above  for imports car
so in total plus shipping AP cars is still cheaper than the imports

shipping cost from japan to here is rm6k . if u dont have any friend inside , sure hard to get that AP.

the max is only 200%.. but Naza n AP king crony sold the vehicle at 300%...

CKD Honda Civic might only pay 40%-60%of  tax from it origin price..

no... you still need to pay the tax..
it just lower than wat u need to pay at here..

dude u mean the list where a brand new camry only 50k??

while i believe those car in the list havent add the manufacture profits..

u take any price from Audi or BMW vehicle in uk... after convert the currency and see the difference is it got 300% of tax..
