Freight forwarders want clarity on LVG quickly

PETALING JAYA: While the government has given some information on the 10% sales tax for low-value goods (LVG) that is now in effect, much more detailed information should be forthcoming in order to assist importers, says the Airfreight Forwarders Association of Malaysia (Afam).

Underlining the challenges involved in streamlining the process with all stakeholders, Afam even appealed to the government to defer the implementation of the tax, just days before it took effect from yesterday.
