退税,以及欧盟、欧元区、申根国的区别

主要参考:[實用資訊] 歐盟.歐元區.申根國傻傻分不清楚 暨 各種退稅方式

退税(有多种渠道和方式,我估计也就只会涉及下面两种):
* Global Blue 机场退税
* Amazon.de 网购退税
送货地址和账单(RECHNUNG)地址可以分开,账单地址需要为欧盟外国家或地区,邮寄地址可以为欧盟境内(免费送货)的地址。
拿着RECHNUNG在机场海关盖章。(机场海关还会再夹一张表格?)
将以下东西寄给Amazon.de:
原件:海关盖章的RECHNUNG
复印件:护照的首页、签证页、出入境页
地址如下:
Amazon.de
Umsatzsteuererstattung
Im Gewerbepark D 55
93059 Regensburg
Deutschland

申根(签证)主要是和出入境相关的。
欧盟主要和退税相关。
欧元区是指当地主要流通货币是欧元。

我在amazon.de据说和.uk, .us是一个账户;但和.cn的账户是用不了的)上注册了个账号,然后就退税提问,下面是回答的主体——应该是同一模版,没有细节,也没有回答我的具体问题。结合网上的一些中文信息,可以有个大体了解,可能实际操作也很简单、没有各种坑,就没有人有动力提供详细攻略了。
