Basic steps of shopping tax refund:

1. You can apply for tax refund if you buy more than a certain amount at one time in a tax refund shop; Fill in the tax refund form and show your passport, and ask the clerk for your tax refund document.

2. Check and stamp the tax refund documents at the customs before leaving the country (valuables should be carried with you and subject to customs inspection).

Although shopping in developed countries, please carefully check the quality of the goods after you get them. If quality problems are found after returning home, it will be more complicated to exchange or return goods. The specific situation is different. Whether it can be exchanged or returned depends on the specific situation.

4. It is recommended to go to the store recommended by the organization for shopping. If you shop in a shop recommended by a non-participating organization, the travel agency is not responsible for any quality problems of the goods.

Shopping tax rebate is a policy of European countries. In order to ensure your interests, all the shops I recommend to you can be refunded. The tour guide will introduce you and help you then. I hope you will follow the guide's advice when shopping.

6. Shopping is a personal behavior. If there is no contract between the store and the customs or airport reasons (the plane is late, the bank is closed, the customs inspection time is tight, etc.), the tax refund cannot be timely. ), the participating institutions cannot handle the tax refund business.
