Can I get a tax refund for shopping in Canada?

Shopping in Canada can be refunded. Canada's shopping tax rebate method is as follows:

1. Tax refund for overseas airports?

The items purchased by tourists are put in the checked baggage. After arriving at the airport, they need to stamp the customs seal at the customs counter first, and then go through the baggage check-in procedures. It should be noted that before the customs stamps, it is necessary to ensure that the tax refund goods are intact and have not been used or opened. ?

There are two main ways of tax refund at overseas airports: cash tax refund and credit card tax refund. Cash tax refund needs to wait in line and be settled in local currency. If it is a credit card tax refund, the tax refund agency will directly transfer the tax to the registered account.

2. returning to China is tax-free?

If you haven't had time to refund the tax at a foreign airport, you can take the tax refund form and check it back to China after being stamped by the customs. After returning to China, you can directly settle the tax refund in RMB. ?

Visitors can hold stamped tax refund documents, choose travel agency outlets to submit documents, or directly contact tax refund companies, and couriers will receive tax refund documents for free. Compared with foreign countries, it takes 15 to 40 working days for tax refund. Domestic tax refund providers can receive full tax refund within 3 to 5 working days after receiving valid documents.
