The rules that decide your landed cost
We check each of these against your invoice before your cargo arrives, so nothing is held at the border.
We pre-clear only. Documents must reach us at least 12 hours before your cargo lands, or clearance will be late.
Only air courier and postal parcels up to RM500 (CIF) skip import duty and sales tax. Air cargo we clear pays duty and sales tax by HS code.
Goods sold online at RM500 or less to Malaysian consumers may carry 10% Low Value Goods sales tax, charged by the registered seller at checkout rather than at the border.
Some goods need an import licence. You provide it with your documents; we'll tell you if you need one.
Documents you need
Have these ready and we'll do the rest
- Commercial invoice and packing list, at least 12 hours before arrival
- Airway bill
- The Malaysian importer's details, or our Importer of Record service
- Any import licence or permit your goods need
Landed cost check
Send your invoice. Get duty, sales tax and licence needs back in 1 working day.
We return the HS codes, a duty and sales tax estimate, and whether your goods need a licence.

Which shipments do you clear?
Air cargo of general goods, arriving at KLIA, Kota Kinabalu or Kuching. We don't clear sea freight or courier parcels.
When do you need my documents?
At least 12 hours before your cargo lands. For short flights, send them when you book the flight. We pre-clear only, so late documents mean late release.

What is the LVG tax and does it apply to me?
A 10% sales tax on goods sold online at RM500 or less to Malaysian consumers. It is charged by the registered seller at checkout, not at the border. Sellers must register once LVG sales pass RM500,000 in 12 months.
