donal5 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2010 Hi Mistgun, just curious, you mentioned you drove to JB and did some shopping. I was wondering if you need to declare anything? I thought if you drive back, how did they charge for gst. Thx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought if you drive back, how did they charge for gst. Thx Only need to declare at singapore side. Go to the red lane to declare the items purchased. Malaysia no need to declare anything. Singapore side need to pay 7% gst for the items purchased. The rebate is only meant for things bought for personal use. Each person will get rebate and also depend on how many days you are away from Singapore 1 day each person is 50 rebate. 2 day away from Singapore is 150 rebate per person.
