QUOTE(MacDaNife @ Jun 22 2007, 11:42 AM) Computers are TAX FREE in Malaysia. So it does not matter if it is used or new, you can bring it in and it WILL NOT be taxed. Strangely, computer PARTS are taxed but not a whole working computer. Just wondering, what is considered computer parts then. For instance, if a whole set of computer is brought thru custom, and includes LCD monitor, keyboard, mouse, ext hdd etc on top of a desktop, which are taxable or all duty-exempted if it goes with a desktop? Any ideas?

QUOTE(MacDaNife @ Jun 29 2007, 04:05 AM) I'm no customs expert but I do know that all the items you have listed are tax-exempt. I've got a couple of stuff (4gigs of RAM and a 250Gb Harddrive) for my MacBook Pro winging it's way via FedEx International Priority right now (At this writing it's in Subic, Phillipines) and when I spoke to FedEx Malaysia about it yesterday afternoon, they assured me that both items are also exempt from any customs duties. From your post, I can only deduce that FedEx told you that ram and hdd are tax exempted. What makes you think a bigger item such as a monitor is exempted also? If that's the case, since TVs are also usable as monitors, then if you say you are using your TV as a monitor, would it also be exempted? I would think not, for both monitors and TV.
