Customs: No change in mobile prepaid reload prices


PUTRAJAYA: In a quick turnaround, the Customs Department has indefinitely postponed its directive to revert mobile prepaid reload card prices to pre-GST levels on Friday.

Director-general Datuk Seri Khazali Ahmad (pic) said the postponement was in response to a statement by MCMC.

"In line with the announcement by MCMC that telcos are still conducting a study on the implementation of GST on prepaid reload cards, the directive by the Customs Department to revert to pre-GST prices on May 1 is postponed," said Khazali in a brief media statement Thursday.
