ie, Its purchased in Aus, find someone travelling overseas, get them to take it out of oz with receipt, then post it back to me?
Will they get the 10% GST back in cash from airport? Cheers Nudged, The watch needs to leave the country either in your hand luggage or on your person.
Once again though, penalties are harsh for under-declaring excess goods brought into Australia.
So true, however customs do not appear to be aware.
At least the Australian system is fast and easy; the Italian system is very complex, with some hoops at the airport, and I'm still awating my refund after more than a month (at least the Euro is moving in my favour).If you are travelling with family you can pool your allowance.I think they also stamp your receipt to show that it's been refunded (if they didn't, aside from the above you could also double dip if you were a frequent traveller and get refunds each time you left the country within the 30 days).The person making the refund claim, must be the person who bought the watch.ie, name on the tax invoice has to match the passport.
Don’t be shy, showcase your interests, avoid clichés and boring descriptions and get down to the real you to stand out from the crowd.3.
