hi i have a shipment of consolidated goods each of the package is below RM500 but when it has been consolidated its like RM900+ will they tax me for the total of the package?

Hi, can i know how much required to import "foot care" product from US ?

By right, yes. Anyway, it depends which postal/courier service you using, the size of the consolidated postage and your luck. It should come with a tracking number? Keep an eye on it. A bigger size postage and using UPSP, fedex would likely attraction from Customs and taxed. Speak from experience. Cheers

hi guy... im wondering if i need to get special approval permit for a running gps watch ? if yes, how much will it cost and how i go about it ? thx for your input

May i know the fiber cement board import from china?
How much tax will charges?

@zzzhhhzzz watch or any kind of watches don't need any import permit or tax/duty imposed (http://v.gd/kdrmtax)

Hi Pal,

Thanks for the prompt reply, its just that the watch has an integrated gps module in it, thats why i was wondering if it will be labled as watch. Was also aware that gps system needs some SIRIM approval and my watch standing something in between a watch and a gps is a bit confusing. Anyway thx for your input Really appreciate it

Hihi,

if i buy computer accessories like keyboards mice & etc from razerstore will I be tax? If so how much? need help on this.

Computer Mouse/Mice;
Customs HS Code: 8471.60.0000
Tax: 0%
Duty: 0%

Computer Keyboard;
Customs HS Code: 8471.90.0000
Tax: 0%
Duty: 0%

my friend just bought a keyboard got taxed 25% close to 100++

supposed to be tax free right?

Should be tax free according to the HS Code (recheck it @ http://tariff.customs.gov.my).. some customs officer is corrupt enough, like to imposes tax to the items that are not taxable...most important you need to know exact HS Code for the items you like to import.

what does this mean??

14. Non-dutiable. Computer cables are dutiable at 30% import tax and 10% sales tax. Modems require an approved permit from Telecom Malaysia.

The thing is razer uses FEDEX, they didn't hold the item but imposed the tax. Could it be because it exceeded the RM500 threshold?

Maybe the Fedex courier used by your friend has uses wrong HS Code, because not all computer related equipments/accessories are tax free, you may ask M'sia customs via email (ccc@customs.gov.my (Monday to Friday)), they will give you exact explaination.

want to ask, since it happen to me on import on watches
if really kena tax on wrong non taxable item, can we get refund?

I think yes.. but if possible, ask your shipper to enter the right HS Code for watches (in waybill, which customs will refer to determine whether the items is taxable or not), like I did.. HS Code for watches start with 9102.XX.XXXX, learn the HS Code first in tariff.customs.gov.my to avoid from 'kena goreng' dengan customs officer.
