Swedish tax rebate strategy 20 18

How can I travel to a place without buying buy buy? After a trip, eating and drinking, the most enjoyable thing is to buy something that satisfies you. Sweden, the country with the largest tourist flow of over one million last year, is indispensable for buy buy to buy this place.

Then Bian Xiao will introduce you to a strategy closely related to purchase in buy buy, that is, the tax refund strategy for shopping in Sweden. Remember to keep it! Very important and comprehensive strategy!

Refund of tax

When buying goods in Sweden, you must ask for a tax refund form, fill in the tax refund form when leaving the country and give it to the customs for stamp (it may be necessary to check the real thing, so you must refund the tax first and then consign it), and finally withdraw cash at the tax refund point or choose to refund the tax to the credit card.

For tourists visiting Sweden, the taxes that must be paid include the value-added tax on goods and services (Mervardeskatt or

Mothers), this tax is included in the price, and the tax rate varies, with a maximum of 25%.

For example, the standard is 25%, train and bus tickets 12%, hotels 12%, telephone cards 20%, food and beverage 12% and books 6%. Visitors from non-EU countries and non-Norwegian residents who take their shopping out of Norway within three months will enjoy tax-free concessions.

When shopping in a store marked "duty-free shopping", you can get a "duty-free shopping check" if the total consumption is higher than the minimum amount. After going through the customs at the airport, you can apply for tax refund at the tax refund point.

If you travel to several countries in the European Union, you can apply for tax refund together when the last country leaves the country, and the tax refund will be charged a handling fee.

Note: Try to choose cash tax refund. Credit cards are risky, and people often can't get a tax refund.

Try to choose local currency for tax refund, which can avoid the following situations. For example, Sweden uses the Swedish krona. If you leave Sweden and choose the euro as the currency of tax refund, the tax refund for goods purchased in the euro zone will drop from the euro to the Swedish krona and then to the euro, and the exchange rate loss will exceed 5 percentage points.

Duty-free tobacco and alcohol can only be brought into the country if they are over 20 years old, and coffee 15 years old must be brought into the country.
