QUOTE(setsukeSama @ Nov 4 2011, 07:33 PM) I think DHL and FEDEX will help me do the clearance right. A Nintendo 3DS will also have to apply for a permit? then i'll get charge for about 10% of it's value? My place also far from KLIA so if can i prefer not to personally declare the item, thats y I'm planning to use these services Sorry dear, but I'm not sure about this bcoz I've nv purchased a Nintendo. Maybe can wait for TS reply or call Customs directly for clarification. |

Need to apply for electrical permit or not?It's mentioned many times before, computer and laptops are tax free. EDIT: How about Kindle? Is this taxable? I contacted Customs directly. First reply I got, it says no - but need to contact SIRIM about the permit. Second reply I got, they say Yes. I'm also confused. This post has been edited by fionafan79: Nov 10 2011, 03:14 PM |

Anything with 3G will be taxed. Not too sure on Sirim. Laptops should be just fine without it. |
