In japan you get all of your tax refund on the spot. 10%.
But with pie vat, they charge ridiculous 3% on the tax exempt total,
Then they have balls to charge you even again another 200-300 to refund the amount.
On the sheet they say fee of 1.5%.
But it is 3%.
I feel cheated, handling fees should be 3% of the tax refund not on the pre tax amount.
Oh yeh you need download the app and submit your info to them as well.
