Recently, as international exchanges have become more active and foreign travel has become more common, shopping in foreign department stores and airport terminals has become more frequent.

When shopping in a foreign country, that is, when a Korean purchases a product in a foreign country, or vice versa, a foreigner comes to Korea and buys a product, a portion of the tax on the product can be refunded.

Specifically, according to the 'VAT and Special Excise Tax Exemption Regulation for Foreign Tourists', foreign tourists or overseas Koreans who bought goods at the 9,000 sales outlets designated by the National Tax Service, such as department duty-free department stores, as well as after-tax duty-free businesses, After departure procedures, tax refunds are made immediately before departure at the refund counter in the bonded area of the departure hall.

In addition, in Korea, a VAT refund service (pre-refund), in which a post-exemption duty-free shop deducts and pays taxes immediately when purchasing goods, is the same as a duty-free shop in downtown, which is a pre-tax duty free shop. It is introduced and implemented in accordance with the regulations.

As a result, foreign tourists can purchase with the exclusion of VAT at the site where the merchant purchased the goods. This immediate tax refund service allows foreign tourists to receive tax exemption benefits at stores, excluding 10% VAT, if they purchase goods over 30,000 won or less than 300,000 won per purchase during the period of stay. .

To do this, the foreigner who purchases must have a passport for identity verification so that the sales clerk can recognize this through the passport reader and receive a refund.

On the other hand, there is a company that provides tax refund in the process of refunding foreign tax, and the company that is authorized to operate the refund window is performing Tax Refund through the Korea Customs Service.

Hereinafter, these refund counter operators are collectively referred to as TaxVAN.

As shown in FIG. 1, when a foreign card purchaser pays for a credit card using a terminal of the affiliate store 10, the affiliate store 10 makes a tax refund approval request through the TaxVAN company 40 and the TaxVAN company ( 40) proceeds with the tax refund procedure after checking with the Korea Customs Service (50).

At this time, if a foreigner receives a refund before or after using a tax refund, the tax refund fee using the refund system is paid by a foreigner who is a tourist, and the tax refund fee is settled by the credit card company 30 at the merchant merchant 10. The deposit is included when depositing the money.

The merchant 10 that collects the payment must directly pay a predetermined tax refund fee to the TaxVAN company 40 according to the tax refund procedure, and the TaxVAN company 40 charges the monthly or unit fee to the merchant. In accordance with the merchant 10 pays a tax refund fee.
