am student in aussie, wish to bring car back to malaysia

[godfatherchrist]

Hi guys,

im currently finished my study here in aussie and will be back to malaysia for good in a month or two. and i wish to bring my rex back to malaysia with me too.

im not quite sure about how is that to be done, so i hope i can get some answer from here.

do i have to pay any taxes if i bring back my car ? coz i've heard there's a student AP thingy n with that AP i don have to pay any taxes if i own the car more than 9 months n being a student for more than 2 years.

i've looked thru the internet and found out that there are so many different solution, so im kind of confuse which 1 is true.

thanks alot !

First and foremost, I never did this, but I'm just trying to give u some idea...

AP is just the "Approved Permit" issued by MITI, so that you can bring the car back to Malaysia.

In order to get this AP, the car must registered under your name and had insurance coverage in that particular country (in your case Aussie) for at least 9 months. So, make sure you bring back all documents of de-registration, insurance policy, and etc from Aussie.

Even you are entitled for AP, you will still have to pay the import tax and excise duty, calculated by Kastam Malaysia upon clearing it from port of discharge (Port Klang/Pasir Gudang).. The kastam will calculate it based on several variables; doket value of the car, year of manufactured, displacement, type of vehicles (MPV/SUV/Saloon).. This matter will aply to those qualified for the personal/individual AP (malaysian who worked/study abroad)...

Hope this can give you some clue...

1-how long is maybe just about a month(If u prepare all document complete)
2-check with the malaysian embassy over there....a few application form was needed to be filled
3-normally for shiping there was some appointed company for those ap holders...pls double check with embassy...
4-chrome....as long as it was original/stated in the vehicle reg. card i think would be fine...

You need to be a student.
The car was registered and insured (comprehensive not third party) for at least 9 months
Cannot sell for first 2 years upon return to Malaysia

This is what I keep hearing. Never done it myself.
