VAT refund in Europe

[Colombiano]

Considering buying in Copenhagen but I have some questions regarding tax refunds

The Rolex AD in Copenhagen is not Global Blue, so maybe Tax Free Worldwide, that's the other company that appears on the Visit Copenhagen website and seems to have a good presence at the airport. I am waiting to hear back from the AD about the process.

Does anyone have any idea what commission these organisations charge? I presume you have to use them and cannot go direct to someone. Would be sweet to just get the DKK back in cash.

When I leave Copenhagen the next country I enter will be Malaysia. I have never done this before, do I need to declare the watch in Malaysia? Do I need to pay any taxes on it? Or am I just good to go with my new watch and I can travel anywhere with it? Will then be flying to SIN from KUL and I am just perplexed about this tax-free watch that I will be taking with me.

Apply the global blue card. Save time on refunds.

You will probably be looking at around 9.8-10.5k after VAT refund. Assuming they sell at RRP.

As taxes differ from country to country difficult to say exactly
If u spend longer time in one country log in into one of their watch forums or clubs
Look at the sales corner, sometimes good bargains possible if you know what u want
