Hey guys, can I check if anyone's bought any exquisite watches overseas such as Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, etc and got it shipped back? I'm looking to buy a pretty expensive watch, around RM 90k and getting it couriered via either DHL or FEDEX. I heard watches are non dutiable and would appreciate if anyone's got any feedback regarding purchasing watches overseas. Thanks!

They took 45 minutes to key in the tax form. if me i think iw ud hv taken 5 min max 10 min how i know cos slow motion.... sloww, sloow then chit chat lagi. So my fren who went with me said now wonder charge rm49.50 for form cos take so long to comple Your items kena tax or not in the first place?my brother said slow mo was cos i didn't pay duit kopi. haiii. If no tax, then don't have to pay them anything. And I do agree that they are slow when doing their works. Just take their own sweet time. |

If you don't mind your watches got stolen... go ahead.Read their insurance coverage well. |

So my fren who went with me said now wonder charge rm49.50 for form cos take so long to comple the custom K1 form only cost me RM 18.00 i think.. (i can't remember the exact, bt it's definately less than RM 30.00. my brother said slow mo was cos i didn't pay duit kopi. haiii. RM 49.50 is the handling charges if you asked the pos malaysia to do the clearance for you.(i think this should includes the custom form charges). filling in the form is fast, but their system sometimes very slow. coz once they completed the form (online) they have to submit to custom (online) and wait for their reply, there and then. once custom has reply only they can print out the form.. most probably your items has no tax + duty. but RM 49.50 is still ok compare if you want to do the clearance yourself and go to KLIA all the way from Penang rite? or even if you appoint a forwarder to do the clearance , it will be more expensive.. |

Thanks for the information.POS Malaysia only helps u to do custom clearance including tax payment but not for SIRIM matters~ I called up Butterworth Unit Trade & Forwarding 04-3235102 to find out the reason why my item was held by Kastam, the guy who picked up the phone seems like not really clear about the reasons. Can I request them to forward the item to LCCT Kastam unit? I don't want to go all the way up to Penang to settle this stupid issue. Btw, do you think their office open on Saturday? For Butterworth Kastam branch. |

QUOTE(keii-kun @ Dec 18 2007, 09:08 PM) Ok, sharing my experience importing a wedding kimono for men from Japan. my japan friend did the transaction and got the kimono shipped to me . Kimono costs around RM1500.00 actually, I don't think malaysia support this kind of fabric being sending over.One day, poslaju called me whether I want them to be their agent, they will settle all the tax and procedure, then later I only pay them when pickup at Pos Laju branch. I was practically thinking that the tax would be cheaper than me driving all the way from Melaka to KLIA (toll and petrol) so I agree. 2 days after that, poslaju called me tell me that procedure completed and they will forward the item to PosLaju Melaka. I was soooo shocked when hearing the tax and fee... total up to RM600++ DAMN! if i had driven to KLIA, i could have negotiated with Kastam for the tax cos i bought it for my personal use (for my wedding!) Moral : don't rely on POSLAJU as agent I heard that they actually banned batik coming from Indonesia. |

I've bought some batik from Indonesia got no problem...the thing is if you purchased RM500 most likely it will get taxed...including fabric. The trick is to buy less than that.

QUOTE(Maxkhoon @ Mar 15 2010, 01:49 AM) http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1355117 If the dvd boxset is big or cost > RM500 then Kastam will detain your stuff when arrive. Foreign dvds actually need to get clearance from Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna Malaysia (the building is opposite of Pos Malaysia LCCT) otherwise the kastam will not release your item. So my advice make sure you buy in small shipments costing less than RM500 to avoid getting your items detained by kastam.please help me.. this is my first time purchasing item online at Amazon.. so it's a Friends DVD complete box set..I was kind of know about this kastam things today o_O I never know that if buy things from foreign country will be block and charge for a TAX which is not low!

Handphone almost 100% will get taxed. Don't bother declaring a different name as Customs will know its a handphone. Once they hold the item you will need to go to SIRIM to get an approval sticker. There are a few additional charges that you will need to pay.QUOTE(mykazza @ Apr 23 2010, 12:21 PM) my product are held by custom, no note from pos malaysia.. and the product is within malaysia, why would that hold that ?
