Hi all! I've been trying to Google customs and GST duties for online purchase of watches, but it's so hard to come across any credible thread.
MWF has discussed this once before, but that was from 2009, and the status quo might have changed tremendously since then.
So for the benefit of Malaysian online shoppers (I plan to RM1,000 price-range watches on Jomashop), what are the protocols for online orders from overseas? Is GST implementation random? Are watches still exempt from customs duties? How much extra charges are we looking at for various price points? e.g: <RM500; >RM1,000; >USD1,000
The only watch I ever ordered online this year was a Vostok (RM350 because I ordered extra bezels), and it went through customs without a problem. So no GST there.
What about you guys? Do share your experiences. Thanks!
