How does it work with the sneakers as they said I had to take the box from the store but could wear them to leave the country…but then Don Quixote said we can’t open the sealed bag before leaving or we could need to pay the tax
in reality no one cares at the airport what you boght couse no one will check what you bought. In theory it could happen that the toll at the airport will check online, what the taxfree stores reported back to the toll but they would only do it if you bought crazy expensive stuff worth thousands of dollars which you could consume in the country. I guess you are not going to eat those sneakers in japan. Therefore you are save with buying sneakers and wearing them. just keep the receipt and dont throw them away. if you bus stuff tax free you have to take them with you out of japan. If the toll asks you where the items are and you cant show them. then you will be in trouble. as long as you can show them. you are save
everything is thax free, that you dont consume in japan. if you are not planning to eat that bag in japan, you can use tax free if the shop offers it. In reality no one will check at the airport what you bought tax free. they just scan your passport and you are ready to go.
