Many tourists believe that the "departure tax rebate" has a direct positive impact on Shanghai's local tourism and retailing industry.

"At present, the consumption of inbound tourists in China is mainly concentrated in accommodation and pportation, and shopping consumption is relatively small. After the relevant tax rebate policy is promulgated, it is expected to further stimulate the consumption level of overseas people in China."

Lou Jiajun, director of the Tourism Department of East China Normal University and director of leisure research center, analyzed that the National Convention and Exhibition Center had already opened the door to greet guests. The Disney project in Shanghai is in progress. Shanghai will usher in the overcrowded passenger flow of holiday leisure and business meetings in the future.

Lou Jijun also pointed out that to build Shanghai into an international tourist destination, a fashionable shopping destination, a leisure holiday destination and an international tourist hub, and build a world-famous tourist city, the "departure tax rebate" will become a supporting policy.

A number of online travel agencies said, "

We will strengthen our efforts in the inbound tourism business in due course.

Telling reporters with her own experience, Japan is relatively standardized, pparent and perfect in the implementation of this policy. For example, when shopping in shopping malls, salesmen will remind foreign tourists about tax rebates, and when tourists buy tax rebates, a certain amount of tax rebates will be allowed to be repaid on the spot.

Some countries have implemented the tax rebate policy, but the shopping area has no clear hints, and it is difficult for the airport to find a rebate window.

Therefore, in order to make this policy good and truly benefit tourists, we need to establish a series of perfect supporting services.

As a matter of fact, from the pilot projects in Hainan, only 3 designated shops were designated for the first batch of tax rebates, and the designated shops were few, which caused much inconvenience to overseas tourists.

Lou Jiajun believes that the starting point of tax rebate consumption is 500 yuan, which will directly stimulate sales of souvenirs and local famous brand products for overseas tourists market. However, the domestic tourism commodity market is still short of brand names and famous brand products, and it needs further development.

Some people in the industry have suggested that the real huge potential of consumption lies in the Chinese people. Instead of letting them go abroad to buy goods, they should actively strive for policy breakthroughs, so that people can have more opportunities to buy duty-free goods in China. For example, apart from offering tax refund shops for overseas tourists, whether they can expand the scope of domestic consumers' shopping abroad to buy duty-free products.
