Get a container, I think its about 950+ for a 40ft (can fit 2 cars) or 600+ for a 20ft. He should know who to use as their agent in Malaysia. The guy he always use is reliable and the charges is not that bad either. The easiest way to get docket price is find out what the price of the car brand new in the UK and remove about 17% from that price. Its not exact but it can help in doing the estimate. For Hondas, customs will use the price in Yen instead of pounds sterling. leslieng, just be careful, japanese car are being calculated in Yen, thus with current yen value rising, your tax calculation might be off. just brought in an civic EK4 from UK, year 1997. taxed ~RM13,000 by custom. bought there GBP1,300 only based on original civic ek4 price in japan JPY1,850,000 in 1997 u can refer to exchange goo-net for reference http://exchange.goo-net.com/catalog/HONDA__FIT/ GBP500 or RM500 for a 20ft is cheap.....sounds illogical. puspakom charge for inspection to change name : RM60 This post has been edited by keii-kun: Sep 2 2010, 04:57 PM

It is not hard but if you live far from KL, I advise you to use an agent. if you do live far from KL, except sarawak or sabah, it is better you do it yourself. with complete document it will only take you 2hr to submit the document. no big deal. agents charges are ridiculous! 1 day leave will settle to submit. maybe someone could add on the 1st page. just submit an application last friday. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 1. Get the form at Percetakan RM0.60/pc. Near JKR building price is RM2.00. Get 2-3 copies in case wrongly filled. 2. Document to be prepared and get all of them certified true copy (there is one commissioner of oath at the hawkers centre) 3. Documents (this is for student's AP) Student's - Passport copy - I/C Copy - Driver's license - Boarding Pass - Visa copy - JPA/Scholarship offer (if under JPA, else university's offer letter) - Financial afidavit for university - Cert / Transcript / Supporting letter from uni if you finished and returned but not yet graduation Vehicle Copy - Grant - Insurance - Invoice/or receipt. If purchase directly on cash from previous owner, make a simple letter with the previous owner sign. Form - JK69 to be type - can use MITI there got kiosk to type in template and dot matrix printer to print on the form. Clerk will help to adjust printout. - AP application - will be given by MITI to be filled there. Basically a form & checklist as per above list 4. Submit the document 5. Wait for MITI to call for further inquiries or inform AP ready to pickup. 6. AP is valid for 6 MONTH after application approved. Added on October 17, 2010, 2:27 pm QUOTE(BeastX @ Oct 7 2010, 03:45 PM) Assuming you can get the discounts.... yes... around that RM22k....hope Yen will drop lower in 2011 (For now increased about 30% compared to early 2008, late 2007, that about a third of the tax) kanz, the taxes should be about that. japanese car taxes are quite a lot right now. no escape on that. based on my survey with local AP importer car seller, the taxes for the following car is approximately as below wish - 2005/06 : not more than rm20,000 estima - acr-50 2006 : not more than rm50,000. i was like whatttt???

Personal AP runners are making big buxs out of this so called trickyness no need those kowtim kowtim. deal by the book
