Thanks very much!  So I can declare on the K1 Form when I go pick up from Pos Malaysia?
*
Declaration is done on entry point of importation (airport gateway). You must inform Pos Malaysia to do the declaration as per your request before it's done.
When you pick it up at Pos Malaysia, it's already wayyy too late.

Oversea seller > courier pickup > export clearance > transit > import clearance > courier delivery > buyer.

Any idea how I can ask Pos Malaysia to do the declaration? 

Or do I get the K1 Form from Pos Malaysia, fill it up and return it to them before the package arrives?

Thanks again, your info is very helpful.
*
Yes, sort of. You have to liaise with Pos Malaysia for the process. Must done before package's arrival.

General questions... What does it mean by "Held by custom (import)" status? How long does it take for the item to cleared or detained by them? If detained, how long do they detained it before returned to sender if nobody come to claimed it? Just worry I don't receive any notification from them... Sorry if this is incorrect thread to ask

Import clearance in the process. Depend on waiting list when the agent submit the paperwork to Customs, normally 1-2 days. If no further update, u should ask the agent.

Hi kherel77 ! I planning to buy handbag for my wife from USA which cost USD 191 included shipping. But the handbag is not a luxury brand, am i still gonna pay tax?
*
Luxury or not, if taxable items still got to pay the taxes.

Tax is dependable on Tariff Codes of items & CIF Value.

My second parcel is detained by customs.

Question, if I havent sorted out my first parcel which is still with customs (and the 15 days limit is approaching), should I drive to KLIA to claim two parcels. I'm thinking to save some money but I'm afraid they will claim two separate orders are less than RM500 individually but when add them up, it's more than RM500. In that case, it's not worth it for me to drive all the way there and instead just ask Poslaju to help me settle with some additional fee. 

Both parcels are supplements.

Any thoughts? kherel77
*

1. Import declaration is made per shipment. Means 1 AWB per Customs K1 Form. There is no such thing combine several AWB per 1 declaration.
2. Detained for what reason? taxable? wrong Tariff Code? Need import permit/approval? As supplement is under MOH to approve it, not Customs them self.

You should know the reason first before ask Pos Laju to settle it as import permit/license under MOH have to apply by yourself.

Hopes that will help.

dear sifu's , need ur help here...

i ordered 3 items from amazon usa to be shipped to malaysia. The item is shipped via Aramex

item 1 - Brother brand small label printer with Bluetooth
item 2-  a small toothbrush holder made of plastic
item 3 - a 6 pcs set of kitchen utensils - no knife , only pasta spoon,soup spoon..etc..

The cost of all these items is RM 300 and shipping cost it RM 90. So total is less than RM 400.

I received email from Aramex saying i would need sirim permit. WHich i knew before buying the label printer. Because it has bluetooth. communication device. So i know i cannot escape that, so thru online, emailed sirim, send product details and paid the sirim RM100 for the bluetooth label printer.

Now i receive email from Aramex, asking me to pay the duty Rm 80 + Rm30 Aramex Processing free. What happen to the rule of item below RM500 no need pay any tax or sst? Is aramex squeezing me? From the document i received, there is hs code declared for my item..but the categories under the item is more like for manufactures. I bought the item for personal use and not under any company.

Please advise. Would i be able to talk to customs and collect the item myself?

thank you.

First, did you know how exactly this rule apply for inbound shipment?

"Customs Duties Exemption Order 1988 Item#172: Any goods below RM500 CIF value using air courier services thru KLIA, Subang, Bayan Lepas, Senai, KK & Kuching airport will be duties/taxes exempted except cigarettes, liquors & tobaccos."

CIF Value = Invoice value + 1% insurance + IATA Freight Rate
Minimum 2018 IATA Freight Rate from USA to MY is RM535.54. So total up your shipment's CIF Value is more than RM500.00


Second, personal or company use will be applied under same Customs Act. No different.


Yes, you can try talk to Customs for their clemency & waived your duty/tax. Aramex won't do that on your behalf.

hi bro, thank you for your help. The minimum 2018 IATA Freight rate is typo? RM 535 or RM 35?
If minimum of 535 used to calculate CIF , how can the goods be below RM 500? So no matter what, need to pay duti and tax?
*
Yes, it's correct RM535.54. As USA is most further country from MY. The nearest neighbour country like SG=RM94.16, TH=RM89.48.
So, according to this act, every shipment from USA is not entitle for this exemption. But there is rumors that the limit will be extend to RM800.

We only pay if the item is dutiable or taxable. If the HS Code/Tariff Code indicate no duty or tax, why we want to pay, correct?

thanks! May i ask where and how you found this? I entered this number into MySST, and it came out with nothing.

Is this under sports?

It's under "Articles and equipment for general physical exercise, gymnastics, athletics, other sports (including table-tennis) or outdoor games".
You should enter it without decimal.

Hi there, thanks for the reply. But I have no idea how to calculate the IATA rate based on the table shown. hmm.gif

28580 Yen ~ RM1047 + RM319 (min IATA rate) + 1% insurance ~ RM1376 (CIF Value). So estimation taxes 10% for Toys/Figurine is RM137 excluding clearance broker fees.

Anyway the clearance broker fees is the fee for Pos Malaysia?

Yes, correct. But different broker / agent have different rate. Better check with them. Mostly around RM30-RM50 at most.
