His first time going into Malaysia?

My friend kena before also. He replaced the display in his car and put the old one in the boot and forgot about it. When he go JB, the kastam officers checked his boot and saw it. Google online the price for a new set and calculated the tax payable accordingly. Suck thumb go office pay up.

Sinkies love to Kpkb online got simi use????

Their country, their rules. If you're not happy, pack your bags and teleport elsewhere. Problem solved, zero drama!

Let's be honest: you can pull up to immigration with ten million screaming online followers, but the guy at the booth still only cares about whether your passport stamp is right. Spoiler alert: you're just another commoner in the queue.

Keep the boot empty. Items on your person generally are exempt... but if you have something overly fancy, who knows.

S$185 * 3.xx

Your thread title is totally wrong. There isn't any more or less taxes to pay. It's just the guy carelessness or ignorant when crossing borders... You have to follow the law when crossing into another country. Electronics are taxable all the while when going into Malaysia...nothing new. Only thing new is a negligent traveler.

Remember a case where someone came back with bag full of longchamps lol. Like 90 or so
