Japan updates tax-free shopping process for visitors

Starting November 1, Japan is moving away from immediate tax-free discounts at shops in favor of a refund system processed at the airport. Travelers will now need to pay the full retail price at the time of purchase and then verify their passport at customs within 90 days to receive their money back. To be eligible for a refund, shoppers must spend at least 5000 yen at a single store during one day.
