The tax refund process of Japanese tourism and what consumption can't be refunded?

If you are in a group tour, the main shopping spots are Ginza, Qieyuan City and Shinsaibashi in Osaka. Most of the shops in these shopping spots can be refunded, and there will be tax-free or tax-free signs. Sometimes you show that you are a foreigner, and the staff of the shop that can refund the tax will also tell you that you can refund the tax here. Most stores can refund the tax directly at the store, and the procedures are as follows: 1. Show me your passport. The clerk put everything in a bag with something like taxfreebag written on it. Then the clerk takes your passport to fill out the tax refund form, which needs your signature. Finally, he will pin the tax refund form and shopping list on your passport. Remember to cancel your visa at the airport before you leave Japan. That is to say, after going through customs at the airport, give it to the airport staff and ask him to help you take down all the lists. Ps: Most department stores in Ginza are unified counters for tax refund, so you can't directly refund tax in them, such as Mitsukoshi.
