I live in California, but will be going Paris for vacation next week. I'm planning on stopping into Goyard Paris and picking up some items. Does anyone know how the tax thing is done? Do you have to have the items shipped back in order to be exempt from the taxes?

Thanks! :)

When you pay, ask them to process a taxback (detaxe), and they will print out an extra invoice and a detaxe form (bring your passport! Or at least remember your passport number). When you exit the EU, present your goods and the documentation to the tax refund booth at the departure terminal and they will process your refund.

If your invoice exceeds €1000, you will be asked to process your refund after proceeding through immigration (if so, you must make sure that you have them with you as hand-luggage). Get a customs stamp first and then go to the tax refund booth. If they cannot give you an immediate refund, they will ask you to drop your relevant documentation (with the customs stamp) in the mailbox in the reply-paid envelope that Goyard originally provided you with. Goyard will refund in around 8 weeks (I got mine from the end of February a couple days ago). Goyard will refund 12%.

Oh, and get to the airport as early as possible! I waited in queue at Heathrow for over three hours to get my ~AUD$1000 refund.

Happy travels!

Great! Thanks for the info!
 
Hi experts! I need your expertise on Goyard sales. I have heard that they occur, but are infrequent. Do you know if there will be any for the summer season? I would really like to grab a zippe wallet to go with my Saint Louis PM! Many thanks!

I'm not too sure that Goyard has sales. Sure Barneys and Bergdorfs may have their own promotions, but since Goyard does not follow the fashion show seasons (ie. only have a permanent collection), it does not make sense for them to discount their items. Then again, I'm not 100% sure on this, but going by their marketing strategy, I'd bet against it.
 
I e-mailed the Goyard Hong Kong staff a couple days ago and just received their reply about prices on certain items. Feel free anyone to correct any wrong information.


St. Louis PM *--- *HKD 8700
Jeanne MM *--- HKD 15000 (STANDARD) HKD 19500 (SPECIAL)
Boeing 30 *--- HKD 20600 (STANDARD) HKD 26700 (SPECIAL)
Croisiere 35 --- HKD 17900 (STANDARD) HKD 23200 (SPECIAL)
Vendome --- HKD 29400 (STANDARD) HKD 38200 (SPECIAL)
Marquis --- HKD 17400 (STANDARD) HKD 22600 (SPECIAL)
Sac Hardy PM --- NOT SELLING IN HK
Zippe PM wallet --- HKD 6400 (STANDARD)
Long Bi-Fold wallet --- HKD 7900 (STANDARD) HKD 10300 (SPECIAL)
Short Bi-fold wallet --- HKD 5000 (STANDARD) HKD 6600 (SPECIAL)

* A couple weeks ago when I first inquired, the St. Louis (Standard/Special) was HKD 6800 for the PM, and HKD 7900 for the GM...so I'm not sure of a price increase or a typo. ;)
