Hi kherel77, I have been asked to email the online receipt to custom at post office but the tax is too expensive. (Japan 2nd hand wheel rims)
1. my exporter declared lower value than my online transaction. Should I take the packing note value to declare at custom or the online receipt?
2. When custom tahan the parcel at Malaysia, do they actually get the item description (Quantity, price etc.) online detail from exporter?
3. How do customs verify and confirm the receipt is tally with the packing list?
Hope you can clearify my doubt.
Hi,
From what you wrote here, I assume your shipment was coming with only AirWayBill & without shipping invoice. Plus your shipper put low price for it. Normally it will triggered Customs & raise a flag. So that's why they ask for supporting documents.
1. You can ask softcopy invoice/receipt from the shipper. Packing note/AWB value is only a reference shipping value for courier general use/shipping insurance/etc...
2. No. Courier/freight forwarder will provide to Customs if they got it from shipper. But they do have reference on market value. They actually have 1 team/department for check items market value. Little of us know this unless you work with Customs or had training under them.
3. As above. If the value declare not carry too much different, they also didn't bother. But if too low it will raise a flag as I said before.
For vehicle rims, most of them have 30% import duty + 6% GST.
