Tax Refund
WHO HAS THE RIGHT TO A VAT REFUND AND HOW TO REQUEST IT.
VAT REFUND FOR PURCHASES
Tourists residing outside the EU who shop in Italy are entitled, upon returning to their home country, to a partial refund of the VAT paid on goods purchased and not yet used. To obtain this refund, they must request a proper tax-free invoice from the retailer instead of a standard invoice. After the tax-free invoice has been issued, it is necessary to ask the shopkeeper for the Tax Free Form
VAT refund documentation
Together with your own passport and the purchased goods, the Tax Free Form needs to be shown and stamped at the customs desk of the airport of the last EU country preceding the return to home.
VAT refund for purchases from abroad
By going with the stamped Tax Free Form and your passport to the nearest Global Blue office (or Associated Refund Point), you will get your VAT refund in cash, or an equivalent credit to your credit card.
