QUOTE(melt @ Apr 13 2015, 04:15 PM) From my experience your item will most probably be taxed if its a bulky item. I dont think so cuz I bought cosmetics item less than 500 but they deemed my parcel value at 700 therefore I got taxed Small item(value exceed RM500) hardly get taxed as that doesnt attract them to take a look on the item itself.   |

QUOTE(icemessenger @ Apr 25 2015, 04:32 PM) the shipping notice (or whatever it's called) on the parcel should have specified the value rite? Yes they have but I received the official receipt from customs and they were using some abbreviation that I dont really understand. Basically ived been taxed around 13% since my parcel value is leas than 500. |

QUOTE(melt @ Apr 24 2015, 08:19 AM) I say hardly not that your item definitely have no chance of being taxed. If you can provide the invoice of your item and the shipping charges you can actually talk to them. The invoice was provided on the top of the box so i guess it wasnt my lucky day. I received the parcel exactly 2 days after GST being implemented so.... |

QUOTE(icemessenger @ Apr 25 2015, 10:36 PM) that's weird Nope not in a huge box, weight approx 1.4 kg just a few lipsticksbeauty products with value under 500 should be tax-free is it a huge box? did the parcel specified that it's beauty/cosmetic product?

QUOTE(melt @ Apr 26 2015, 10:37 AM) FOB -free on board Total is RM 460++ plus shipping charges but they deemed my parcel at RM 670++ Frt - freight CIF - cost freight + insurance. Tax will be calculated based on this value. How much is your total including the shipping charges? If the frieght charges not in the invoice custom normally simply assume a certain value if I m not wrong. There is a few cases happen before when you use shipping company like FedEx etc More than 200 difference. 😅 Using UPS. Luckily they only charged RM 25 for this. I know FedEx/DHL will charge more. |
