Hello all! I've been to Paris several times and successfully gotten the tax refund back at CDG airport. However, this summer, I'm planning a trip and taking a train from Paris to London (and flying out of Heathrow back to the states).
Does anyone know how I can get the refund for my Paris purchases? Do I have to go to airport for the tax refund?
Thank you!!
You would get the refund in the city of your departure back home, so in this case you would get it at Heathrow. I bought something in Paris last year but flew home from London and this is what I did. Anyway, I don't think there is a tax refund counter in the Gare du Nord train station in Paris.
