Can I get both the liquor tax and consumption tax refunded at a sake brewery?
Please note that not all breweries are eligible for tax exemption.
However, if you are a non-resident, such as an overseas visitor, and you purchase alcoholic beverages directly from a manufacturer licensed as a tax-free shop under the Consumption Tax Act, both the consumption tax and the liquor tax may be exempted, provided the designated purchase procedures are properly followed.
For further details, please contact the brewery directly.
