ARRIVALS

Visitors entering Malaysia through the various entry points are required to declare all dutiable or prohibited goods in their possession. They are also required to open, unpack, and repack their luggage to facilitate customs inspection. This ruling applies to visitors arriving in Malaysia at first points of entry only. There are no customs duties for travel between Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah and Sarawak. The islands of Labuan in Sabah and Pulau Langkawi in Kedah are excluded from any customs duties because of their duty free status. No customs duty is payable on any goods imported into Labuan or Pulau Langkawi except rubber, marble, anchovies and petroleum products.

Malaysian customs regulations provide stiff penalties for those who are found guilty of making false declarations or for concealing any dutiable or prohibited goods.

GREEN CHANNEL SYSTEM

At certain entry points (particularly airports) where the Green Channel system is being practised, visitors who are not in possession of any dutiable or prohibited goods except those allowed under the duty free allowances, may go through the Green Channel.

Visitors who are in possession of prohibited or dutiable goods in excess of the duty free allowances to which they are entitled are advised to go through the normal channel and make their declaration to the Customs Officer on duty.

DUTIABLE GOODS

Visitors must pay customs duties on all dutiable goods at the rate of 30% ad valorem provided that the goods are imported on or with the person entering Malaysia or are in the baggage of such person and intended for non-commercial use.

In the case of alcoholic beverages, tyres and tubes, spirits, tobacco and cigarettes and motor vehicles, the rate of duty will be the prevailing rate at the time of importation.

Visitors who are in doubt are advised to consult the Customs Officer on duty at the entry points. Telephone nos: (603) 87766575 (KLIA), (604) 643 4401 (Bayan Lepas), (604) 922 1631 (Bukit Kayu Hitam), (604) 949 0214 (Padang Besar), (607) 222 4666 (Tambak Johor), (607) 513 3024

ALLOWANCES FOR NON-RESIDENTS AND RESIDENTS

Malaysians or visitors may import some goods duty free if they satisfy the following conditions:
That the articles are imported by the visitor on his person or in his baggage.

That the visitor satisfies the Customs Officer that he is not normally resident in Malaysia and intends to visit Malaysia for a period of not less than 72 hours. In the case of Malaysians, that the person had left the country for a period of not less than 72 hours. (For Federal Territory of Labuan, the period is 24 hours)
