What Really Happens at the Border?
Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes when goods enter or leave Malaysia? Whether it’s a new iPhone, pet food, skincare, or a box of frozen lamb — everything has to go through our customs checkpoints!
Malaysia’s borders — whether by land, sea, or air — are constantly monitored by the Royal Malaysian Customs Department (JKDM). But it’s not just about catching smugglers (although that happens too!). Customs plays a big role in protecting our economy and health.
✨ So, What Does Customs Actually Do?
Here’s what happens every day at our borders:
✅ Collecting Taxes & Duties
All imported goods are taxed based on their category (called HS codes). That’s how the government earns revenue from international trade.
✅ Biosecurity Control
Think plants, fruits, meats, pet food — these go through strict checks to avoid harmful pests, diseases, or banned ingredients. Agencies like MAQIS and DVS work alongside customs for this.
✅ Controlling Restricted & High-Risk Items
Some items need special permits — like medical devices, cosmetics, and electronics. And yes, your online order could get stuck at customs if paperwork isn’t done right!
