Import machinery and industrial supplies from China to Malaysia

Reviewed October 2, 2026.

To import machinery or industrial supplies from China into Malaysia: import duty is calculated on the CIF value. Import taxes combine several charges (SST); confirm the total rate for your tariff code. Malaysia has a trade agreement with China (ASEAN–China FTA, RCEP), so many goods enter at reduced or zero duty with a certificate of origin. Check whether your product needs a local certificate before it ships. Machines must be configured for the local grid: 240/415 V, 50 Hz.
