VAT Refund: Tax Free Calc

The posted VAT rate is not what you get back. Between refund operator commissions and currency conversion markups, the amount that actually reaches your card can be far below the tax you paid. VAT Refund shows you the real number — before you're standing at the counter deciding whether it's worth it. WHAT IT DOES - Enter what you paid. See the tax portion, the operator's cut, and your estimated net refund, itemized line by line. - Compare refund routes side by side — major operators versus claiming directly at the store — so you can see what each one costs you. - Check the minimum spend for each country before you shop, not after. - Know where and how to claim: which countries use digital export validation, which still need a paper customs stamp, and what to do at the airport. 39 COUNTRIES Europe: France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Netherlands, Portugal, Greece, Ireland, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Croatia and more. Beyond Europe: Japan, South Korea, Singapore, UAE, Turkey and others. JAPAN, NOVEMBER 2026 Japan's tax-free system changes on November 1, 2026 — from exemption at the register to a refund claimed on departure. The app already knows both sets of rules and switches automatically on the day. No update required. BUILT FOR TRAVELERS, NOT FOR OPERATORS - Works completely offline. No signal, no roaming, no problem. - No account, no sign-up, no email. - We are not a refund company. We don't process your claim and we don't take a cut — so the comparison has nothing to sell you. - Every calculation is saved to your history, so you can track what you're owed across a whole trip. - Full support for larger text sizes and system accessibility settings. HONEST ABOUT LIMITS Tax rules change, and they change without warning. Every country entry shows when its figures were last checked, and any entry we haven't independently verified says so plainly. Treat every number as an estimate and confirm with the merchant and customs before you rely on it. Free, supported by a small number of ads. Never on the calculator screen.
