Tax Free when leaving EU through a different country

11/6/2016 10:17:28 AM

Actually I found the answer, in case someone else wonder if it’s possible, the answer was found here.

Do I have to leave the EU straight away from the country where I
purchased goods? No. You can buy VAT-free goods even if you are going
to be visiting other EU countries before you finally return home, as
long as you actually leave the EU with the goods within the time
limit. You have to get your documents stamped by a customs officer at
the point of exit of the EU – not necessary in the same EU country
where you bought it.

Be careful if you leave the EU by train! You may be able to get the
VAT refund documents stamped at certain train stations of the
departure. However, you might as well need to get off the train at the
last station within the EU to get this stamp. Other methods could also
apply (e.g. a customs officer might be boarding the train) .

This depends on the trains’ route and the internal arrangements in
each EU country.

We therefore strongly advise you to consult in advance the national
authorities or your refund company on the arrangements applicable in
our concrete route.
