Usually most machinery does not incur any duties, however sales tax maybe imposed. For exemption of duties, usually if FORM E, is available for the items, duties will be exempted, however this is to be confirmed if we have more information on the imported items. Another option is to apply through Finance ministry or mida for specific exemption. |
Please go to, https://www.mida.gov.my/setting-up-content/pacu, MIDAS portal on PACU. PACU basically assist investors to expedite the whole process of getting approvals. The information on tax exemption application of machinery are also available there. It would be faster if investors are doing it through PACU. |
