ATTENTION INTERNATIONAL TRAVELERS…

Before leaving Texas and the USA, SAVE by receiving a refund of the Texas Sales Tax paid on purchases in Texas!

 

International Visitors, to qualify for a Texas Sales Tax refund the following documentation must be presented at any TaxFree Shopping location:

 

** Passport


** I-94 (White or Green card in your passport)


** U.S. Visa (If required for your country) or foreign voter picture identification card.


** Boarding Pass/Flight Information (e-tickets are acceptable) showing your journey from Texas to the foreign country in which you reside (including any stops).


** If driving out of Texas and the United States no flight information is required.


**Original sales receipts and purchased items.
Items Must be brought to a TaxFree Respresentative for inspection. We suggest you visit the TaxFree Redemption center before you check in for your flight, so one of the representatives can view your purchased items.


Emailed, Reprinted, or photocopied receipts are not acceptable for export except for internet purchases as supplements. Please visit our website FAQ for more details.

** TIP: Ask the retailer for a Duplicate Receipt on important purchases for your records. TaxFree Shopping must keep the original receipts in order to process your refund.

Items must be purchased in Texas within 30 days of departure.

** TIP: TaxFree recommends that visitors purchase items within the last two weeks before departure to allow for processing time.

Purchases must be taken with you when you depart Texas and the USA.


A minimum of $10.00 of Texas Sales Tax per store location is required.

** TIP: Multiple receipts from the same physical store location can be grouped together to make up the $10.00 minimum requirement. Organize your receipts to help speed processing.

US Citizens & Residents exporting goods out of Texas & the US are eligible for a Texas Sales Tax refund.

Documentation requirements may be different for US Citizens/Residents.

Please visit our website FAQ section or contact us for the latest requirements.

TaxFree Shopping Ltd, a Texas Customs Broker, will process your Texas sales receipts and refund your tax dollars, less our processing fee.
