Many of my readers who read my post about How much money can I bring into Malaysia also ask me "How much gold or silver can I bring into Malaysia".
I try to asked some of my friends who worked in Royal Malaysia Customs department, most of them reply the same thing, The value of the gold or silver that you bring into Malaysia must not exceed USD10,000 or more.
Please be informed, they will not count a denomination value for legal tender coins but current gold market value.
Most entry point will have at least one guy from Royal Malaysia Custom department who knew a little bit about current trend of gold bullion, silver bullion, gold bar, silver bar, gold dinar or any other gold silver investment.
If your items worth more then that, you must make a declaration in Customs form No. 22. The Customs form No. 22 will be made available at counters located before the Customs Checkpoints at all entry and exit points of Malaysia.
