Swiss shopping tourists will pay considerably more

the Federal Finance Ministry shall examine whether the VAT at the time of export in Switzerland will in future only be reimbursed with the purchase of 175 Euro (about 200 Swiss francs). Shopping in different stores would not limit the introduction of a minimum cumulative.

According to the chamber of Commerce and industry Hochrhein-Bodensee (chamber of industry and Commerce), it would remove the reimbursement at 80 percent of the purchases, writes the "basellandschaftliche Zeitung" on Wednesday. According to the South Baden in Germany, the FDP Bundestag deputies Christoph Hoffmann, a third of all exports currently affects certificates invoices under 50€.

Hoffmann finds the limit of 175 euros too high, and for 50 or 75 Euro.

Alone, the main customs office in Lörrach, about 130 customs officers were tied up with the export certificates along the Swiss border, so Hoffmann. In the case of a minimum threshold of 50 euros, the Federal government could abandon about a third of the officers and a minimum of 2 million euros to save.
