hello guys,
i was wondering if anyone has tried the De-tax process in lebanon !
Do you know the rules?
as much as i know
1) you need to have a foreign passport
2) you need to stay in Lebanon for less than 3 months (Travel > Lebanon (less than 3 months) > Travel again)
3) it is around 9%
Are those information correct?
Thank you for your input.

if you are referring to VAT
1) no you don't need a foreign passport, you need to prove you are a foreign resident, as in residing outside the country, ( with residence visa, iqama, etcc.. and your foreign home address)
2 is correct,
3 closer to 8%
4 you need to show the item you purchased is with you to the customs officers (BEFORE YOU CHECK-IN YOUR LUGGAGE) to approve it first ( you cant buy a TV and not have it with you when you travel)
5 After the customs office approves the paperwork ( you can go check-in your luggage) then go to VAT Office,
