Shopping

I understand that liquids cannot be brought onto the airplane, so how can I apply for tax exemption for cosmetics and so on?

For liquid tax-free items, please present your passport and purchased goods to Customs at the time of departure from Japan.

If you plan to place these items in your checked baggage, please ensure that you have them inspected by Customs before checking in your luggage with the airline.

For further details, please refer to the details in the "Purchase of Tax-Free Goods" section on the official Customs website:
