Do you always have to pay import/excise/customs duty on something from abroad? what happens if you've paid VAT on the item in the other country,thanks.

If it's from the EU at this time it's free,
from any other country you should have bought it tax free for export & will be charged vat & a RM handling charge because they have the contract to deal with it.
