1. Please be informed that a person taking up residence in Malaysia is permitted to import used household effects without payment of import duties and sales tax subject to the following conditions:
a. that the importer is the owner of the household effects in question;
b. that it has been in the importers possession and is used for a period of not less than 3 months;
c. that it will not be disposed off within 3 months from date of importation.
2. Household effects are articles which are normally used in the house e.g. washing machines, refrigerators, hi-fi set, furniture, cookery, children toys, computers, clothing etc.
3. The above mentioned facility is applicable to personal belongings only. Office equipment and furniture do not qualify and therefore customs duties and taxes need to be paid.
