'Vehicle must be insured under the applicant's name for a period of not less than nine (9) months (from the date of car insured to the date of return to Malaysia).'

Malaysian citizens that is eligible to apply:

Government officials working or studying overseas (at least obtained a diploma).

The minimal insurance then, with the very basic/minimal coverage, which was what I had used.

Work.... even part-time will qualify I guess..... after retiring age will do too, the certainly did not mention age limitation.

Must work full-time and have working visa

So whats the price if i want to import a Ferrari F360 2004 used from UK ? Price about 50,000 pounds.
Is car around RM380k-400k only including tax and everything?

question here
I have a friend who is already in UK for 7 years as 'student'
and of course he's not intended to return to Msia

anyway, if i purchased the car via his name, will I able to bring
back the car after his ownership of more then 9 months?
Of course the owner's name on document will be him ...
Yes he do comeback Msia to renew his passport/visa etc but he wont return for good

I have not decided what car yet cause i dont know my idea can go thru or not

if its does, the car i am looking at is BMW Z4 3.2cc 2006 to 2007 which less then cost 20k poound

or Honda S2000 year 2000 cost less then 10k pound

Thanks for yr advise.

buying from langkawi/labuan and bring it to pm will be cheaper than buying in pm?

no matter how long it is?

basically the custom tax is almost the same as the cost u bought the used car (+-RM5k)

165% x [above 3L car.. value (depreciate as stated in my previous post)]... 6 years old car and above has the highest tax cut

not sure of the Euro made cars... but Japanese made cars (or brand) have 25% off the initial value of car before depreciation calculation..

there is also appeal where you can get few k RM discount...

Even you get the car for free.. you still need to pay tax based on evaluation and currency of country of origin.

Usually the tax imposed (for 8 years old or more) on car is less than the market value of the car... A RM24.5k car ... would probably be at around RM40k total (tax and cost)

supposed that is a trade tax, it applies for all used car...

THANKS FOR , If you replied me

2. Ada lesen malaysia. No malaysian license BEFORE going overseas-forget it. You do not have AP to bring back a car-regardless you spend 5 years overseas. MITI reasoning cause if you don't have malaysian license, how come you can drive car when you go to release the car. New addition to the 27th July ruling.
3. Ada lesen at the country you are studying at SEPANJANG memiliki kereta di negara tersebut. Meaning, if you are in Egypt, or Japan, you need to have a Egypt, Japan driving license in order to qualify to get an AP. This is the NEW addition to the 27th July pekeliling. A lot of people who were planning to buy a car stuck at this part even though they can get country of studying/working license, it will still be less than 9 months. New addition to the 27th July ruling.
4. Proof insurance kenderaan tersebut 9 bulan seblum balik. Previously, a lot of Malaysians tipu by getting the car one week before going back and the car agent here will backdate the date of the car purchase. Does not work anymore. This one I know first hand friend bring back merc told to backdate to qualify the 9 months, then car kna compound with Customs. Customs allowed him to buy back the car at RM 400k. He bought the merc for £3k only. Langsung malu nak cakap kat kawan-kawan lain keta tak keluar and senyap-senyap gitu jer. This one OLD rule, but due to abuse, customs/MITI now work with the JPJ with the country where the car comes from. They will investigate on their side. They also know more about the car then you, so if wrecked car or half-cut car they will know. BTW, if your car is half-cut or chasis number does not match, they will rampas your car.
