YOUR LOWEST PRICE, FIRST

Buying abroad from Malaysia

Verified store prices are available, but currency conversions are unavailable. Try again later or use your own quotes.

Cheapest displayed starting cost first, including your selected payment markup. US assumes 0% sales tax in Oregon. Other prices may exclude unverified purchase tax or payout fees. Import costs and travel are excluded.

How we find your best price

Refund scenarios assume an eligible traveler, a participating retailer and purchase channel, and a tax-inclusive price. No-refund scenarios do not require a tourist refund. US pricing assumes purchase and delivery in Oregon, not any US location. Apple website prices do not establish refund eligibility. Includes your selected 0% payment markup on the full payment. Excludes import costs, travel and refund FX differences.

“From” prices are optimistic floors before unverified payout fees—not final prices. Markets without a refund model still participate at their observed starting price, with no refund assumed and any unknown tax clearly marked. Destinations with missing or expired prices are hidden. Verified store prices without FX remain visible but unranked. Cash has no card markup; actual cash exchange spreads can still add cost. Rankings can change after fees and eligibility checks.

BUYING AN IPHONE ABROAD

Which country is cheapest to buy an iPhone?

There isn’t one country that is always cheapest. The answer depends on your iPhone model, storage, exchange rate, purchase location and refund eligibility. Choose your home country in the iPhone price comparison to see the lowest available starting prices in your currency, sorted cheapest first.

How do I compare iPhone prices between countries?

Compare the same model and storage, not different starting configurations. We use source-dated Apple regional prices and daily reference exchange rates. Countries without current verified prices are hidden. Our country comparison guide helps you start from where you live.

Do tourist VAT refunds make an iPhone cheaper?

An eligible refund can reduce the purchase cost, but not every store or traveler qualifies. Potential prices show modeled refunds where supported; some are before operator fees. Check the tourist VAT refund rules by country and the official tax links beside each result before you buy.

Is the cheapest listed price my final cost?

No. The comparison shows potential purchase costs, not guaranteed landed costs. Local sales tax, cash exchange spreads, refund fees and import duties can change the winner. US results assume an Oregon purchase and delivery with no general sales tax, not nationwide tax-free shopping. Use your own quotes to include import costs, and check regional SIM support and warranty. Read how we calculate iPhone prices for the full assumptions.
