How to Import Kurtis from India to Malaysia Wholesale

Quick answer

Women's garments like kurtis and suits (HS 6204) are generally listed at 0% import duty in Malaysia, but 10% sales tax (SST) applies at import. Express courier shipments from India usually take about 2–4 days. Order from a manufacturer that offers a low MOQ so you can test designs with your customers before buying in bulk.

| Item | Malaysia rule | |---|---| | Import duty on HS 6204 (women's suits and ensembles) | Generally 0% (confirm your exact HS code) | | Sales tax at import | 10% | | Low-value courier shipments | Shipments of RM500 or less are exempt at the border, but most wholesale orders are above this | | Typical express transit from India | About 2–4 days |
