Item being held for inspection.

[WJ_]

Hello folks, looking for some help here.
Recently I purchased a pv that cost $293USD and shipped it to a friend at Malaysia because I am afraid that my country's custom will confiscate it. The parcel was sent using USPS EMS, I believe they are handled by POS Laju.

I do not know what to do now, hoping that someone can help. Item status: "Item held for inspection - High Value Goods; location Johor Bahru"

Thank you guys! Best regards

I've read somewhere that if the value of goods is below rm500 or $160usd, it will not be charged or hold. Above that, might take some time, or u'll have to go to custom office to pay the duty fee.

May i know is the PV comes with the li-on battery? Liquid?

It doesn't come with batteries and liquids. Just metal, mechanical mod. Ok, thanks bro. PM-ed you already

Yeah,depending on value it may get stuck till they have time to process it properly,same as in here;but them inspecting it doesnt mean fees will be applied (again,from CP experience only)

What I have heard since young from my parents and people around me, is that people over there who works for the government are very corrupted. I doubt that they won't charge me any fees. Didn't mean to be rude to the Malaysian folks here.
