Apple from Finland: possible difficulties?
What difficulties might you encounter when bringing an iMac from Finland. Who faced?
I am interested in the following: do they return TaxFree or VAT, will I have to return for a refund, or can I immediately buy without VAT with export clearance? Will customs take money from me when importing equipment?

Hi all! I'll tell you from my own experience (according to the invoice I drove a coffee machine from Finca, -23%, with a tax free SLR, -14%). Tax free is convenient because you do not have to go a second time for money, it is enough to present unpacked goods at the customs office in the pavilion and collect the money. But the free tax on equipment is 14%. Available in almost all stores. With an invoice (this is exactly what a VAT refund (VAT)) is more difficult. Firstly, it is far from being issued everywhere, it is better to find out in advance on the store’s website on the Internet (the camera had to be transported for tax free), and here again there are 2 options: either the store will immediately deduct the amount of the invoice from the cost and ask you to drop a check stamped at customs in special yellow mailbox, or go with the same stamped check a second time for money. The term of a repeated trip (in different stores in different ways) is usually no more than six months.
There is an epic thread on IXBT with FAK. Here is a direct link to the person's post: http://forum.ixbt.com/topic.cgi?id=79:1533-21#622
65000 import limit. TaxFree is VAT (VAT) / Of course they return, demand a piece of paper in stores.
Money is received in any place where there are issuance booths. Look at the address on the website, or you will immediately receive it at the airport (if you fly by plane). But for this it is necessary to make a mark at the Finnish customs.
