How to apply for Tax-free when traveling by car?
The question of interest is this - if purchases are made in Germany and Austria, and the exit from the Schengen zone will be Hungary or Poland, then how is it right to do everything in order to return the money. Interested in actions that need to be correctly performed abroad. Which border guards should stamp Austrian and German? Where can I get them if there is no border control anymore. Or all the same, at the exit from Schengen, ask the Hungarians ...
Who faced, write, please!
Thanks in advance!

Good afternoon. The seals are not put by the border guard, but by the CUSTOMS OFFICER of the last Schengen country through which you leave the Schengen. Packages with purchases must be sealed before departure, then the customs officer, when crossing the border, will confirm the export of goods from the EU, and put a stamp on the Tax Free check. You can get a refund on a Tax Free check either at the point of payment at the border when leaving the EU, or in Russia, but whether it is possible in Ukraine, I don’t know if you have such a form of return there. Payment points at the border do not always work around the clock, so it is worth knowing in advance their working hours.

I'm going to mail receipts.
Ok customs officer. But will a Hungarian customs officer deal with my purchases made in Germany? Are there any options on the borders of Germany-Austria, Austria-Hungary?

And he doesn't have to deal with shopping. He only needs to see the sealed package and stupidly slap the stamp. Don't be afraid, Tax Free sounds and is spelled the same in all languages.

And on the internal borders of Schengen: Germany-Austria or Austria-Hungary there are no such options, because. the customs officer confirms with his stamp the export of goods outside the Schengen area. And at the borders you specified, the goods remain in the Schengen area.

Everything was written to you correctly. In Ukraine, tax-free is mainly handled by Privetbank.
Customs officers pass through the car (if you are traveling by train), enter the compartment, where they are invited and check (or sometimes not) the purchased goods.
But there is an undercurrent here - to Ukraine duty-free as far as it is possible to introduce goods? - I don’t remember exactly - 200-300 euros ??
And how much will you show them receipts for purchases?
Just as the conductor once explained to me - their pigeon mail is working properly - they can tell ours in which carriage and compartment there are more goods than the required amount. Draw your own conclusions. fries. And from Austria, the return followed after 9 months.

Yes, Ukraine-200 euros. The Russians were "lucky" -1000.
Well, in this situation, in theory, it will not be possible to import a fur coat from Greece. But these 200 euros are "slaughtered", it seems)

and these 200 euros are "slaughtered", it seems - once in a while it doesn’t have to. And I don’t know about the car, whether they are inspected even more carefully, or more condescendingly ...

They rarely inspect cars - well, they climb in the cabin, under the seats, poke a finger in the trunk - what is it, and what is that, and that’s all)))
They don't even watch alcohol usually...
But here it really turns out that taxi-free is the lot of the EU people and they don’t care how much we bring to Ukraine.
And we will not show receipts from stores to ours.
And so, for these 200 euros, my personal laptop, camera, and walkie-talkies will pull. No one ever declares personal clothes and equipment.
But on the way back, you can, if you wish, and gouge. They just don't need it.
But the walkie-talkie had to be declared - a trip to Belarus ;-)
With your help, I realized that if we still buy skis, a helmet and clothes, then the main thing is not to unpack anything until the coveted stamp.
And after the EU borders, if possible, give a used one and I don’t know anything, I brought it from my homeland and I’m taking it back!

hatinka, you got it right. But the main thing here is not to overdo it. For example, put on a necklace and say that it is second-hand, still all right. But in the hot summer, proving that a chic fur coat on your shoulders is because you get cold from the air conditioner in the car is too much))))
Clarification about the Russians. We are allowed to import duty-free goods for personal use not for 1000, but for 1500 euros.
