[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not a big shopper and haven't needed to do this yet, but my friend told me you can get back the VAT (tax) you pay for purchases in some parts of Europe, definitely London I think.[/quote] Same for Korea, at least. Most of the larger vendors will give you back some of the VAT, then and there, but you need your passport with you. If you don't have the passport, you need to keep the receipt with the bar code, and claim the VAT back, but check the airport and whether you need to reclaim VAT *before* you get through security or not. I made the mistake of not checking this and had gone through security so couldn't reclaim VAT on some purchases.[/quote]
