Do Hermes FSH check passport for purchase

Allan - are there credit cards that are specific to Europe? I was just thinking mastercard or Amex because they are so prevalent here in U.S. ... didn't realize there might be some that are european only so they would assume you were part of EU.

I think it might be cards that are issued by EU banks, as opposed to those issued by foreign (i.e. rest of the world) banks... the assumption of course is, if you have an EU-bank-issued CC, you must be residing in said EU country, thus making you ineligible for any sort of tax refund. :smile:
