[About Global Tax Free]
Global Tax Free is Korea’s leading tax refund service provider, established in 2005. With a nationwide network of more than 12,000 affiliated stores, including over 200 department stores, Global Tax Free holds approximately 60% of Korea’s tax refund market.
Following its successful operations in Korea and Singapore, Global Tax Free established its Japanese subsidiary in 2012 and has since provided innovative tax refund solutions powered by advanced technology.
The Global Tax Free App streamlines tax-free registration for international visitors by enabling passport scanning, purchase registration, and tax refund processing directly from a smartphone.
Designed for speed, accuracy, and ease of use, the app allows users to complete the entire tax-free registration process quickly and efficiently. Real-time feedback helps detect input errors and missing information, reducing registration mistakes and improving operational efficiency.
The app is fully compatible with Japan’s new tax refund system scheduled to take effect on November 1, 2026. Automatic updates ensure a seamless transition to the new system without additional setup or maintenance.
