However, if you decide to purchase equipment in Italy, especially the iPad, MacBook or iPhone, then you will not be discussed without a passport, "in the sense of Apple products, Italians are very strict.
The three most common Tax Free refund systems: Global Blue, Tax Refund and Premier Tax Free: their logos are below.
Most often in Italy, TAX FREE is drawn up through Global BlueHowever, if you are offered one of three companies to choose from, choose Tax refund (Yellow envelope). The fact is that at the airports of Italy at the Tax refund rack, the people are always an order of magnitude less than the office of Global Blue.

Important moment. To return Tax Free, it is not necessary to wait for the reverse flight, it can be done in one of the offices of Global Blue or Tax refund in the city.
With you, it is better to have everything and immediately, namely: 1) passport, 2) Checks on purchases, 3) Shopping ourselves, 4) return ticket.
Unfortunately, without any problems, TAX Free right in the country is not returned in all cases, in terms of clothing and accessories of difficulties, as a rule, it does not occur, but for Mac products will be returned to you only at the airport and most likely to the card.

Procedure at airports in Italy
The standard Tax FREE return procedure occurs as follows:
1) Take the boarding pass.
2) If things, with the purchase of which you want to get Tax Free, you are going to pass into the luggage, please let me know the girl (or young man) at the reception, but do not give the bags in the luggage, just take the coupon.
3) after receiving the landing coupon, you go on the customs point together with the luggage (in Italian dogana.), Usually girls at the front desks gestures explain where it is located.
4) On the Dogana, an officer checks your things with those that are declared in the checks (therefore, they should not be deep in the suitcase, but it is better in advance in order not to delay other passengers, pull things out of bags).
5) If the customs officer suits everything, he stamps your checks, and with certified documents you go to the Global Blue or Tax refund item, in a number of airports they are in the registration area, in others - in the Duty Free zone.
6) Show stamped checks in Global Blue or Tax refund, money, or issuing money to you, or you take your card data to which the required amount will be listed within 3-5 business days, in second case, you must save the paper which an employee will give you in Global Blue or Tax Refund if the money is not listed within two weeks, then call the phone indicated on paper and start swearing.
ROME. FUUMICHINO Airport (Aeroporto Di Fiumicino)
Required time to receive Tax Free - 1.5 hours
At the airport two customs. The first stand is almost in the center of the first floor and is intended for those who want after receiving Tax Free to pass purchases into luggage. You need to go here with a landing coupon.
Doogana employees check things with an average level of meticulousness, can ask to pull out the boots from the suitcase, but no one will become the name of the brands on the check with the tags (in this way, we received Tax Free for left in Rome to the autumn of the Max Mara coat, presented Customs studied NAF NAF).
Queues on the first Dogana - absolute inevitability. Fiumicino is a major, international airport, and their legal money here wants not only Russians, but also the Arabs, and the Chinese, and the Japanese, and therefore in order to stand in line were not nervous, but the meditative, in Fiumicino it is better to come in advance.
Another point, the staff of the first Dogana love to often organize breaks on the cross or coffee, which automatically has a positive effect on the queue length.
The second Dogana Fumichino is for those who live according to the principle of "all their wear with them", that is, for those who do not want to take purchases in luggage. Located for anti-terrorist and passport control in the center of the hall (right behind Salvatore Ferragamo and Burberry boutiques). There is a small queue here in the office of the customs, the staff works quickly, and it is not necessary to wait, but they will inspect the things mentioned in the checks, more carefully.
The long line in Fiumicino is traditionally in the Global Blue Return Window, for people who printed checks on both customs are going there, you will have to lose 30-40 minutes. There is a window - exactly opposite the second Dogana.
MILAN. Malpensa Airport (Aeroporto Di Milano -Malpensa)
Necessary time to get Tax Free - from 3 hours to infinity
From the point of view of receiving Tax Free, in my opinion, the most terrible airport Italy. However, there are more than objective causes.
First, Milan has an overwhelming majority, of course, not with the "secret evening" Leonardo and the Duomo Cathedral, and with shopping, respectively, residents of the UAE, China, Russia and other major consumers of Luxury class products are going here with one mission - "Eat »Boutiques on Via Montenapoleone or surrounding outlets.
In this sense, it is especially funny to watch the crowd of the Chinese at the entrance to the Louis Vuitton boutique, which make up passersby buy for them on their own money the third bag of the French fashion house, - according to the international rules of Louis Vuitton does not sell more than two products in some hands.
Actually, then all this diverse crowd from Russians, Chinese and Arabs you will meet in Malpensa. The Chinese are disciplined people, they can stand in queues for hours, and therefore think that someone has patience of them, and he will give up the idea of \u200b\u200bgetting Tax Free, which means to engage in the vulgar self-december. In short, if you still return to your homeland from Malpensions, you remember to receive TAX FREE you should lay for about three hours.
Tip:in Malpensa, it is better to hand over things in the luggage, the Dogana stand at the registration point (first floor, the right side, if you stand back to the entrance, the very same angle) works more promptly than the one that is located behind passport control - they send those who took the purchase with me on board.
In the queue on Dogan for passport control, you will have to be in a common crowd not only with the Chinese, Russians and Arab beauties, but also with flight attendants of Singapore or Chinese airlines, and they often buy things with suitcases. Therefore, there is no longer an hour and a half.
Check things at the customs Malpensions carefully, sometimes the tags on clothes with names in the check are checked. The queue in the Tax refund money return window - for 30 minutes, in Global Blue sometimes you have to stand at a time and a half hours, but there are almost no people in Premier Tax Free. Operate cash return offices on average from 7 to 23.00, there is a full schedule on the airport site :.
Often, an attempt to get Tax Free in Malpensa is turning around that you are late for a flight, and your last name is beginning to declare to the entire airport through the speakerphone, and the Duty Free Walk turns into a run to the desired output. In a word, draw conclusions, come to the airport in advance and download several Buddhist meditative mantra in the player to combine standing in queues with evening (or morning) meditation.
VENICE. Marco Polo Airport (Marco Polo)
Required time to receive Tax Free: from 15 to 40 minutes
Venetian airport is a small but pleasant in all respects. Dogana's office here is one, located at the entrance. The lady in the office sometimes checks things, and sometimes trusts the checks, but the stamps of them quickly (at least I have never hit the queue).
Give out money after passport control On a round rack. More often in cash, the card is transferred at will. If you fly with a change in another european cityThe process will take only 15 minutes if with compatriots - 40 minutes.
Verona. Verona Airport (Verona Aeroporto)
Required time to receive Tax Free: from 40 minutes to 1.5 hours
Local Dogana is located in the Far Territory of the airport (the first floor is maximally in the left corner), you need to go there with a landing pass, regardless of whether you take things on board or take into baggage.
It is a custom even a room, but a booth in the type of kiosk. If the cabin is empty, customs staff can be called by the number indicated on the leaflet attached to the window (though, local customs officers say in English). Check things in times: they can not ask about clothes at all, but jewelry, iPads and iPhones are asked to show together with a box.
More adviceWhen you stand in line to the window, do not learn to the glass door, it is often forgotten to locate, and if it is inappropriate to open, you will be taken fine 2000 euros.
The refund point is located before passport control and the Duty Free area in the center of the first floor. It employs a sweet Russian girl, it makes it very quickly, but, unfortunately, cash at the airport of Verona is not returned, everything is strictly for a card.
Pisa. Galileo Galilei Airport (Galileo GalileiAeroporto.)
Required time to receive Tax Free: from 30 minutes to an hour
The most difficult in the airport Pisa is to find the Dogana office, for inexplicably reasons, it is in the arrival hall, and not departure, next to the toilets. Often the door is locked, in this case you need to disturb the officers by calling the door. Customs works for those who plan to pass their beluga things, and for those who take on the aircraft.
Stamping checks follow after receiving the landing coupon, but if you came before registered on the flight, then the loyal officers of the Pisa airport can assure checks and without landing. Inspect the purchased things, too, once, on small purchases scattered overcattering, easily "closes the eyes" (especially if you are called). Offices on the return of money are located in the zone of registration of passengers, that is, before passport control.
Milan and Bergamo. Oririo Al Serio Airport (Orio Al SerioAeroporto.)
Required time to receive Tax Free: from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours
Airport is small and dirty, two customs. The first Dogana is located at the registration racks, it is necessary to go here, regardless of whether you take things on board or take into baggage. The length of the queue directly depends on the number of your compatriots in it, things look meticulously, demand to show all items declared in the checks.
If you do not show the customs officer with a suspicious personality (that is, if you scaled only clothes, bags and shoes), then your check will last, and you will calmly get money immediately at the return point (it is located in the airport department to passport control).
If an officer feels in you (usually it happens if you are driving Mac and decoration products to your homeland), then you will write a check only after passing the passport control in a separate Dogana window.
The queues, by the way, does not happen to the second Dogana, however, the branch of the return of money after passport control at Bergamo Airport is also no, so you will have to receive your Tax FREE.
RIMINI. Federico Fellini Airport (Aeroporto Di Rimini "Federico Felini")
Required time to receive Tax Free: from 1 to 1.5 hours
Rimini Airport is the most "Russified" from all Italian airports. This is good, and bad. Well, because Dogana is located directly at the flight racks for flights, following to Russia, and the word "Customs" is written here in Russian.
It is bad that the customs officers of Rimini are picky, checked the names of the brands on the tags with all points in the checks, open boxes with decorations, so the process of inspection of things takes at least 20 minutes.
Passengers passing things in luggage, and shopaholic, who decided to take on board, stand in neighboring queues, checking things first occurs right at the reception rack, after the checks are wrapped, the suitcases put on the tape and send the aircraft.
Money issuance points are located on the second floor of the airport, it is necessary to go there before passport control. The duration of the process of receiving Tax Free depends on the number of charters departing today from Rimini, and how quickly your neighbors by the aircraft will make things to the Dogana officer, but usually everyone fit in an hour and a half.
BOLOGNA. Gulielmo Marconi Airport (Aeroporto G. Marconi Di Bologna)
Required time to receive Tax Free - about an hour
Bologna Airport is a large original in terms of Tax Free. Office Dogana is located in the arrival area (right wing, first floor), go here after registering on the flight. There is a custom, so things for which you decide to get Tax Free, it is better to take in manual jack, Nobody wants to push a suitcase back to the reception.
Check the purchases are not too thoroughly, sometimes satisfied just what they throw a quick look at the package and do not even ask him to open.
If it does not arise with the inspection of things, then the main attraction of the Bologna Airport is the search for a deposit of money. Previously, they, oddly enough, were returned to Duty Free in stores, which is for passport control, now - in the currency exchange kiosk on the second floor of the airport, which is located to the passenger inspection zone and passport control. In principle, on the search for the kiosk and spend the most time, good, even though the airport is not so big.
Another important moment, early in the morning and late in the evening the kiosk is closed, so if you have a night departure, or lower the stamped checks in the mailbox (it is also in the registration hall to passport control), or have to receive money in Moscow.
Getting Tax Free in Moscow Cash
If you decide to get Tax Free not at Italy's airport, and in Russia, then remember your checks in any case should be checked and stamped by the customs officer.
