Tokyo. While I wouldn’t expect this service at small shops, it is a common sight to see “tax free” or “duty free” here in Japan. Here is the official signage seen in many places:<div><a href="https://tax-freeshop.jnto.go.jp/eng/step.php">https://tax-freeshop.jnto.go.jp/eng/step.php</a><br><div><br></div><div>Yes - This is metadata about the shop. </div><div><br></div><div>However, in airports, there are pointedly “duty free” shops for (all) travelers. that have no ability to collect taxes for any purchase, so shop=gifts + duty_free=designated might be a good way to do it for these specialty shops in international zones, Compared to shop=supermarket + duty_free=yes that would be at a normal market that offers that service for foreign travelers who happen to shop there. </div><div><br><div dir="ltr">Javbw</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Dec 21, 2019, at 8:16 AM, Joseph Eisenberg <joseph.eisenberg@gmail.com> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">Just duty_free=yes would be good for a shop in town which offers tax-free sales for international travelers.</div></blockquote></div></div></body></html>
