Hi all, I'm planning to get a watch from Gnomon online store, but I wonder if there is any customs/import duties on watches from overseas to Malaysia.

Thanks in advance guys!

I bought from gnomon sg before.. the tax invoice included in the parcel does not state the price you paid instead they priced it very low I guess is to avoid the custom tax

You can refer to this link here:

https://malaysiawatchtradeassociation.com/m...rvices-tax-sst/

Watches will be taxed at 5%

Try to email Gnomon whether or not they can labelled it as a gift or set the price below RM500

no tax earlier as they declared as service or lower value

yes my purchase was shipped using dhl express

u can also email their support, the person in charge should be anders and he will respond to your queries promptly

as for tax, usually your freight forwarder (in this case dhl) representative will contact you should you need to pay tax for clearance otherwise the package will arrive at your location swiftly

Thanks for your reply!
I found another cheaper source to purchase my watch which is pre-order from Citychain.

However I will keep in mind about this tax thing if I will purchase watch from Gnomon in future.

Thanks again!
