Featured: Centralized Tax-Free Areas

What is centralized tax-free shopping?

Centralized tax-free shopping lets you visit several participating shops in the same area and complete their tax-free procedures together at a shared counter.

Eligible same-day purchases at participating shops can be combined to reach ¥5,000 excluding tax. Individual purchases may be below ¥5,000. You must also meet the requirements for tax-free shopping.

Bring the required goods, receipts, passport and other documents to the designated counter before its deadline on the purchase date. Under the tax refund system, your refund is issued through the registered method after departure customs confirmation. See each area page for participating shops, deadlines, fees and refund options.
