I was referring to the blanket statement that H tax refunds in Europe are always 12%.
Again, back to topic.

This is false as the refund is based on the VAT/TAX that each country impose on each businesses. So essentially you get the tax back on purchases you made based on the tax % imposed by govt on Hermes (sorry too boring!).

It's 15% tax refund for H in the UK when it's 10% in France? Hmmm I may have to rethink my policy of only shopping in Eurozone.....

VAT here is 20%, in the UK, minus commission, VAT refund is around 13%-16% depending on the amount purchased. I am surprised to hear refund is only 10% in France. Do they really charge that much commission in France?
