When shopping in the European Union shoppers must pay a sales tax (known as VAT) on most goods. This VAT is already included in the sales price and the rate of VAT varies from one country to another. By law, non-EU residents are entitled to reclaim the VAT paid on items purchased but exported from the EU i.e taken home with them.
