Japan Travel Must Know!! 🇯🇵 Repeal Tax Free Back to the Original System

Originally, when we shopped in Japan, if the store had a Tax-Free sign, we "do not pay 10% tax" immediately when buying.

But from Nov 1, 2026 onwards, Japan will abolish the tax deduction system at the point of sale.

Tourists have to "pay 10% tax first" and then apply for a refund at the airport.

What do tourists like us do?

🧾 Keep every receipt of the goods for tax return (especially those with passport information or Tax-Free).

📱 Register your passport information digitally (there will be a machine or app to fill in at the store / airport)

🛫 ask for a tax return on leaving the country at the airport or a tax refund counter.

⏰ have a tax return 90 days after the purchase date.

🛍️ The goods must still be in the country when applying for a tax return (meaning they have not been used or eaten before leaving Japan).

Thanks to a source from JNTO - Japan National Tourism Organization.

... Read moreถ้าใครกำลังแพลนเที่ยวญี่ปุ่นช่วงปลายปี 2026 เป็นต้นไป เรื่อง “ภาษีญี่ปุ่น 2026” ต้องเผื่อไว้ในงบเลยค่ะ/ครับ เพราะระบบ Tax Free จะเปลี่ยนจากเดิมที่หักให้ที่ร้าน มาเป็นเราต้อง “จ่ายภาษี 10% เต็มจำนวนก่อน” แล้วค่อยไปทำเรื่องขอคืน (Refund) ตอนออกนอกประเทศที่สนามบิน จากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัว เวลาไปช้อปปิ้ง ของมันจะเพลินมาก โดยเฉพาะเครื่องสำอาง ขนม ของฝาก หรือของแบรนด์เนม พอระบบใหม่เริ่มใช้จริง เงินที่ต้องจ่ายหน้าร้านจะสูงขึ้นทันที 10% (เช่น ซื้อ 20,000 เยน ต้องจ่ายเพิ่มเป็น 22,000 เยนก่อน) แนะนำให้กันวงเงินในบัตร/เงินสดให้พอ เผื่อยอดรูดหรือยอดตัดบัตรจะชนลิมิตแบบไม่รู้ตัว สิ่งที่ฉันจะทำเป็นเช็กลิสต์ก่อนออกจากร้าน (เผื่อไปญี่ปุ่นหลัง 1 พ.ย. 2026) 1) ขอใบเสร็จให้ครบทุกใบ และเก็บแยกซองไว้เลย โดยเฉพาะใบที่เกี่ยวกับ Tax-Free หรือมีข้อมูลพาสปอร์ต 2) ตรวจชื่อ-นามสกุล/เลขพาสปอร์ตในเอกสาร (ถ้ามี) ให้ตรง เพราะถ้าข้อมูลผิดตอนเคลมคืนภาษีที่สนามบินอาจเสียเวลาแก้ 3) ถ้าร้านให้ลงทะเบียนพาสปอร์ตในระบบดิจิทัล (เครื่อง/แอป) ฉันจะทำทันทีที่ร้าน เพื่อไม่ให้ไปค้างงานตอนสนามบิน เรื่องสำคัญที่หลายคนพลาดคือ “เวลาในสนามบิน” ค่ะ/ครับ เคาน์เตอร์ Tax Refund อาจคิวแน่นช่วงพีค (เช้า/เย็น) โดยเฉพาะเมืองท่องเที่ยวใหญ่ ๆ ฉันแนะนำให้เผื่อเวลาเพิ่มอย่างน้อย 30–60 นาทีจากแผนเดิม และอย่าโหลดกระเป๋าใบที่มีสินค้าที่จะขอคืนภาษีไปก่อน ถ้าเจ้าหน้าที่ต้องการตรวจของจะได้หยิบได้ทัน อีกจุดที่ควรรู้: สินค้าควรยังอยู่ในญี่ปุ่นและยังไม่ใช้จนหมดก่อนออกนอกประเทศ (โดยเฉพาะของกิน/เครื่องสำอาง) เพื่อให้ผ่านเงื่อนไขการขอคืนภาษีได้ง่ายขึ้น และอย่าลืมว่าโดยหลักแล้วมีกรอบเวลาขอคืนภาษีภายใน 90 วันนับจากวันที่ซื้อ สรุปคือ ภาษีญี่ปุ่น 2026 ไม่ได้ทำให้ช้อปไม่ได้ แต่ทำให้ “ต้องวางแผนเงินสด/วงเงินบัตร + การจัดเอกสาร + เวลาในสนามบิน” มากขึ้น ใครมีแพลนช้อปหนัก ๆ แนะนำทำแฟ้มใบเสร็จไว้ตั้งแต่วันแรก จะช่วยลดความวุ่นวายตอนกลับได้เยอะเลยค่ะ/ครับ
