Which tax refund method to choose?

For tax refunds in Japan, tourists are generally allowed to choose the tax refund method among cash, check, and credit card. Now let us compare their respective uses. Credit card and UnionPay card are the best choices when leaving the country. Not only is it convenient, but the tax refund is also quick and effective immediately, saving you the trouble of carrying change. Just fill in the card number when you make a tax refund, which saves time and effort, so it is highly recommended. Generally speaking, everyone will think that cash refund is the most practical, because you can see it clearly, after all, it is in your own hands. However, in conversion, the amount of tax refund is generally relatively scattered, and often because of the inconvenience of calculation, a small amount is saved. Although the loss is not big, there is still a loss after all, and sometimes I have a lot of change (Japan has more coins, mostly 100 yen, 500 yen, etc.), so it is very inconvenient to carry it. Checks Of course, generally personal travel will not be so troublesome as checks, but I still have to emphasize here that the most troublesome thing is to return the check. Not only can you get it after returning to the country, but it is also very time-consuming and troublesome, and you must go in person. When handling collection, if the amount is not large, we recommend the above two methods. Mainly because the tax is not high in the first place, plus handling fees and other fees, not much can actually be obtained.

3. Tax refunds are generally available only in large shopping malls and with a purchase price of 10,000 yen or more. Another thing to pay special attention to is that if you can get a tax refund at a mall, you can do it at the mall. Don't ask for a unified refund after leaving Japan. It will not only be troublesome, but also worry that you won't have so much time. The salesperson will help fill out the tax refund application form in triplicate, including passport number, home country address, consumption amount, tax refund amount, etc., and paste the shopping invoice, one for the store and two for tourists, so don’t worry too much about not getting a tax refund.
