Rome FCO airport was not easy for us. The agents barely knew English and folks were being send back and forth to between Customs and Global Blue or Planet Tax Free. It was a chaos for many people. No one knew what to do. The process was so not streamlined. Line were huge. We got to the airport 3 hours before departure and got to the gate only 5 mins before gate was closed. The entire process was a nightmare.

[@ALinsdau]

Sounds like it worked out if stressful.

[@miac3256]

Curious, What time was your flight? I'll be flying United.

[@shreyasnitk]

Thanks buddy, very helpful!

[@ALinsdau]

[@vickilinsdau8687]

Great to know😊

[@ALinsdau]

Glad you liked it

[@muratozen3858]

Thank you!

[@ALinsdau]

Welcome!

[@joanntran8909]

Thanks for posting this!! My purchases are through Planet. Is the process identical to that? I’m flying out through Terminal 3

[@ALinsdau]

Should be similar. Let us know.

[@robinandersson3039]

Can you please make a review video on the Cypress GWS 198 LZ sleeping bag

[@ALinsdau]

When I get my hands on one, I'll make a video.

[@miac3256]

Is this the same terminal where United flies out of? Thank you.

[@ALinsdau]

It's the main international terminal, so probably.

[@paula1106]

Do you know what are their office hours? I google they are open at 9am.

[@ALinsdau]

Would have to check on their latest on the website.

[@iremer1433]

Hello, I have a question about tax free. Do I have to get it on the last day I leave Italy or can I get tax free any day I want before I go?

[@ALinsdau]

You have to do your VAT refund on departure. Make sure not to put your items into checked luggage before going to the window - they can ask to see the items and if you check the items in with your luggage, they can deny your claim.

[@iremer1433]

@@ALinsdau thank you so much for informations. I will be going back and forth to France before leaving Italy permanently. I was wondering if I could get my tax free payment before my flight to France. Thank you for your time.

[@theviewwithautumn5029]

Is this terminal 1 or 3 ?

[@ALinsdau]

Terminal 1 if I'm not mistaken.

[@jnaramusic]

Do they actually check every single the item purchased??

[@ALinsdau]

In theory they could. My experience was they just wanted to see one or two items just to verify. But you definitely need to bring all your luggage over there in case they do demand it because they can.

[@nathanaelvargas9585]

Do we need a Vat 79 form that was we request at purchase ?

[@ALinsdau]

Yes you need the forms from the stores.

[@theGlycine29]

My entry point to Europe is via Lyon France. I bought some items in Lyon then headed to Geneva Switzerland via the train. I will be exiting through the Geneva airport, can I do the tax refund in Geneva Airport for items I bought in France? All these items has official receipt documentations fully filled up.

[@ALinsdau]

I don't think they do overborder - I would email them to be sure.

[@mantkleleman7728]

Can we get cash refund?

[@ALinsdau]

Not in my experience.

[@kaydialao9762]

My flight is leaving to US at 8am and the office is closed. Wonder if it is another way i can get the refund? Can i do it the day before?

[@ALinsdau]

If you have your boarding pass, you could do it the day before.

[@miac3256]

I thought the customs office is open 24/7?

[@eorzeanECM]

hi...thank you for the video. We were in Naples Airport and proceeded to the VAT office area. The gentleman behind the screen took all necessary paperwork, looked something up in the computer and then said. OK, you are ok. That was it. The sign posted in front of the screen is "our stamp will be done electronically only"...He gave all the paperwork back to us and sent us on our way without any paperwork from the VAT office . My question is, I have no idea how to follow up. When will we seen the refund in our credit card?

[@ALinsdau]

It could take a week up to a few months. Never know about those things. Best of luck and post here when it come through.

[@julisagarcia691]

Hi did you ever get your refund back? I am still waiting for mine from August.

[@miac3256]

Did you put your paperwork in the Global Blue mailbox after the electronic customs stamp given? My understanding is that it has to be dropped off in the global blue mailbox

[@aminabryant1266]

What terminal is this?

[@ALinsdau]

Main international terminal.

[@mariammohamed8868]

Could I get it in cash?

[@ALinsdau]

I've never been able to get cash, it's always paid later in my experience.
