Description

  The present invention relates to a method of refunding an additional tax for a foreigner. More specifically, when a foreigner performs a predetermined purchasing act at a subsequent duty-free shop, the additional tax included in the settlement amount by the purchasing act is calculated. The present invention relates to a method of refunding a tax for foreigners so that the foreigners can be easily refunded.

  The number of foreign tourists visiting Korea in the quarter quarter of 2007 will increase by 4.6% in the case of Japan, as the number of foreign tourists continues to increase due to frequent international exchanges. This trend seems to continue.

  In the case of overseas travel, a system has been developed that allows tourists to refund the tax included in the product price when shopping, and even in Japan, foreigners purchase products domestically when leaving the country. You can get a refund of additional taxes. Specifically, according to the “special provisions on value-added tax and special consumption tax for foreign tourists”, in addition to the duty-free shop that is the pre-tax exemption establishment, the Seoul city designated by the National Tax Agency, such as the department store that is the post-exemption establishment, 60 After foreign tourists who have purchased goods at extra sales floors or overseas compatriots have completed the departure procedure, they can be immediately refunded prior to departure at the additional tax refund window in the bonded area at the departure place. Institutionalized.

  However, according to the current procedure as shown in Fig. 1, when foreign tourists want to receive the refund as described above, they will receive and store the refund slip by purchasing each time at the exemption duty exemption office and keep the customs clearance at the time of departure. The situation is that it is very troublesome to receive a confirmation and submit it to the refund window and to receive a refund slip each time and to store it and receive customs confirmation again. Therefore, when the refund slip is lost or damaged, the refund is often abandoned or cannot be refunded due to inconvenience such as receiving a re-payment.

  As a result of efforts to eliminate the inconvenience as described above, in Korean Patent No. 2004-89769, in the processing of credit card transactions, whether or not goods related to credit card transactions are subject to tax refunds, and the resulting tax refunds Although the device and method for automatically determining the amount are disclosed, it is limited to automatically calculating the tax refund amount, and Korean Patent No. 2004-106875 discloses foreign tourists. We have disclosed a refund slip, refund operation method and system that can automatically calculate and output a refund slip including the credit card sales slip function of the post-tax exemption system for the terminal, but at the post-tax free shop There still exists the inconvenience that foreign tourists have to issue and issue a refund slip. Limiting limited to automating manual in Korean Patent Publication No. 2003-64226 was the same as before.

  Therefore, the current refund procedure and system are the facts that the inconveniences that arise when foreigners visiting Japan try to receive a refund of the additional tax have not been solved.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention does not separately issue a refund slip that describes the breakdown of additional taxes that can be refunded when a foreigner purchases goods at a subsequent duty-free shop. By managing the refund information for each foreigner by the management server, it is possible to easily check and output the entire refund breakdown through a dedicated device when receiving a refund when leaving the country. The purpose is to eliminate the inconvenience of the conventional refund procedure.

In order to achieve such an object, the present invention is configured such that when a purchase is made using any one of cash, a general credit card, and a dedicated prepaid card, purchase information is transferred from the settlement terminal of the subsequent duty-free store to the management server. And a step of approving a purchase action based on the purchase information, a step of storing refund information including a transaction breakdown and a refund amount by the approval in a refund database server, and an additional tax In the tax refund method for ordinary foreigners, including the stage of refund for

  FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a tax refund process for a foreigner according to the present invention, FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a network system according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is still another embodiment of the present invention. It is a block diagram of the network system by an Example.

  The additional tax refund system for foreigners according to the present invention is generated by a card issuing company 19 for determining whether or not a payment is approved by a purchase act performed at a post-tax free shop, a management server 11 for managing refund information, and a management server 11. The refund database server 13 for storing the refund information to be managed and the description that can confirm the breakdown of the refund information are output, and if the seal of the predetermined organization is obtained and entered in the description, the additional tax is issued. Including special equipment 15 for money.

  As described above, conventionally, when a foreigner tries to receive a tax refund for the amount consumed in the country, a refund slip must be issued and stored for each settlement case. However, depending on the ex-post duty-free store 17, there are cases where it is impossible to issue such a refund slip, and foreigners themselves often neglect attention to such a necessity. In such a case, when trying to reimburse when leaving the country, it was very inconvenient to find a reimbursement slip or get a re-payment.

  In order to eliminate such inconvenience, the management server 11 according to the present invention separately manages refund information for a settlement in a situation where a foreigner is allowed to receive a refund when there is spending such as shopping in the country. By doing so, the foreigner and the ex-post duty-free store 17 do not have to pay attention to the refund slip every time, and the refund information is managed or accumulated internally in the management server 11, and if necessary, When a request is made at a person or after-tax duty-free shop 17, a refund can be made with a simple procedure by checking the target and breakdown of the additional tax refund in a lump.

  The general features of the processing module included in the management server 11 should be described in detail in the additional tax refund method according to the present invention, which will be described later. It is managed as main data together with personal identification codes such as card numbers, passport numbers, social security numbers, information on the ex-post duty-free shop 17 that can repay the additional tax, information on target purchase items for which the additional tax is refunded. In other words, the refund information includes a transaction breakdown and a refund amount due to the purchase of foreigners. In order to generate such refund information, the management server 11 is preferably linked to the member store 23 and the card issuing company 19 using a network such as LAN or WAN.

  In one embodiment of the present invention, the management server 11 can be configured by being operated at an existing card issuing company 19. In other words, a separate management server 11 is additionally provided in the settlement system of the existing card issuing company 19 so that refund information is separately managed for sales performed at the ex-post duty-free shop 17 among the member stores of the card issuing company 19. That is. When the management server 11 is placed in the card issuing company 19, the merchant 23 which is not the post-tax duty-free shop 17 is also connected to the card issuing company 19, so it is necessary to confirm whether it is the post-tax free shop 17 upon approval. Thus, such a procedure can be performed by confirming the refund classification code and the code information for the ex-post duty-free store 17. Here, the refund classification code is used when the purchase action by the foreigner is performed, and when the act of distinguishing the purchase subject to refund using the refund button provided in the POS terminal of the sales floor or the like, A code transmitted to the payment approval server of the card issuing company 19.

  By the way, in still another embodiment of the present invention, the management server 11 can be operated independently by a separate company without being operated by each card issuing company 19. In such a case, except for the member store 23 of the general card issuing company 19, it will be possible to consolidate and manage only the ex-post duty-free store 17 capable of refunding the additional tax. In order to perform the function according to the above, each card issuing company 19 must be separately linked again. By doing so, it is possible to smoothly receive the service of the member card issuing company 19 regardless of the settlement method used by foreigners, while managing the refund information separately. According to the other embodiment, only the ex-post duty-free store 17 is connected to the management server 11, but a refund classification code is still necessary because there may be a purchase by a domestic person.

  Of course, the card issuer 19 approves the payment with a general credit card, but it is also possible to manage the refund information by issuing and selling a dedicated prepaid card that can be used separately by foreigners. is there. That is, a card with a certain amount charged in advance in the form of a prepaid card is sold so that a settlement like a general credit card can be made within the charged amount. It is preferable that the dedicated prepaid card can be used in the general member store 23 in addition to the ex-post duty-free store 17.

  Since the advantage of the prepaid card as described above is a card issued by the domestic card issuing company 19, the refund procedure for the additional tax is relatively simple when viewed from the side of the card issuing company 19 and the post-tax-free store 17, From the standpoint of a foreigner who has the card, the portion of the additional tax that is refunded can be re-accumulated and used again, which is convenient in terms of usage. Looking at the refund procedure when a foreigner uses a normal credit card issued in his / her home country, when the foreigner makes a settlement at the ex-post duty-free store 17 in the country, the approval for the purchase is a domestic card issuer 19 First, the entire payment amount is paid by the domestic card issuing company 19 to the ex-post duty-free store 17, and the post-exemption duty-free store 17 allows the foreigner to receive a refund corresponding to the refund amount. Provided to a refund window (dedicated device 15 in the case of the present invention), etc., the domestic card issuing company 19 requests the foreign card issuing company 21 to re-approve the approval details, and the foreign card issuing company 21 goes through the process of billing foreigners who are the principals of purchasing. That is, even if the additional tax refund system according to the present invention is used, the additional tax is not processed separately at the beginning, and a procedure for depositing the tax exemption store 17 so that the tax can be refunded must be performed. Of course, such a payment method of the total amount can be eliminated by business cooperation with the foreign card issuing company 21.

  On the other hand, in the case of using a dedicated prepaid card issued by the domestic card issuing company 19, the domestic card issuing company 19 separately settles and manages the additional tax part by the management server 11, At the same time as the settlement by the foreigner, only the settlement amount excluding the refund amount is deposited in the ex-post duty-free shop 17, and the amount corresponding to the additional tax is settled between the card issuing company 19 and the operating entity of the management server 11 according to the present invention. As a result, the post-tax duty-free shop 17 can reduce the work burden of the ex-post duty-free shop 17 and can receive a refund on the exclusive prepaid card that is held in place of the above-mentioned additional tax payment. It can also be processed to be recharged immediately, giving foreigners the advantage that the refund amount can be used again like the charge amount. Here, the exclusive prepaid card is managed by the management server 11 by data such as a personal identification code of a foreigner, a card issue amount, a card number (particularly a BIN code) and the like input in the card issuance and sales process. It is preferable to further operate the card issue database server and the card sales database server so that such data can be stored. Specifically, the issuance amount, number of issued cards, card number, etc. are managed through the card issue database server, and the card number, passport number, social security number, remaining amount, validity period, etc. can be managed through the card sales database server.

  The refund database server 13 has a function of storing refund information such as a foreign object refund settlement amount and additional tax processed by the management server 11, and the dedicated device 15 is connected to the management server 11 via a dedicated line or LAN. It will be located at the airport, etc., and foreigners can check the refund details when leaving the country, output the statement and receive withdrawal of the refund amount, the ex post duty-free shop 17 The breakdown and refund breakdown can be inquired and output. The dedicated device 15 can be used as it is by adding a function to an automated device such as an existing ATM device, or can be newly developed separately. Refund related information is selectively provided from the management server 11.

  Hereinafter, a method will be described in which the above-described additional tax refund system of the present invention approves the transaction breakdown, settles the additional tax, and refunds the additional tax to the foreigner.

  FIGS. 5 to 10 are flowcharts of a method for refunding additional tax according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  Referring to FIG. 7, first, foreigners can make payments for goods subject to refund at the ex-post duty-free shop 17 using various payment methods, such as ordinary credit cards, exclusive prepaid cards or cash. Can be mentioned. When a foreigner makes a settlement by purchase at the ex-post duty-free store 17, predetermined information regarding the purchase action is transmitted from the settlement terminal of the sales floor to the management server 11. The settlement terminal at the sales floor can use a normal settlement terminal and is a general settlement terminal or a POS terminal on which an article code, an article name, etc. are displayed and inputted. When the POS terminal is compared with a general payment terminal, the article code and the article name are displayed together when the foreigner can output a specification through which the breakdown of the refund information can be confirmed through the dedicated device 15. So that purchase information can be communicated.

  When payment is made as described above, a personal identification code such as a card number, passport number, social security number, etc. including a refund classification code from the terminal, an identification code of the ex-post duty-free shop 17, a code of purchased goods, a payment amount Are transmitted to the management server 11. The management server 11 to which the information as described above is transmitted determines whether it is a settlement action suitable for the category to be refunded through a predetermined procedure. As such a procedure, a process of determining whether it is a post-tax free shop 17 by an identification code is preceded (S211). If it is confirmed that the post-tax-free shop 17 is not the post-tax-free shop 17, an error message requesting a general approval process is output instead of the refund category settlement, and the approval is rejected (S311).

  In the case of making a payment with a credit card, generally, a process of judging approval / disapproval through the first six digits (BIN code) of the credit card number is performed (S113). If payment is made with a normal credit card, the management server 11 can process and store the refund information, and the approval procedure follows the general processing procedure of the card issuer 19. The refund information generated at this time is stored in the refund database server (S413).

  In addition to the confirmation procedure as described above, when the payment is made using a dedicated prepaid card, the information on the card issuing database server and the card sales database server is used to determine the authenticity of the dedicated prepaid card, the validity period, the remaining amount, etc. Is additionally followed (S115, S119). Therefore, if it is not a dedicated prepaid card sold, it is not a post-tax duty shop 17, the validity period has expired, or if all the remaining amount is exhausted, an error message is output and a general approval process is requested Or reject the approval (S120, S311).

  The exclusive prepaid card is issued in advance by a card issuing company 19 and sold to foreigners at an airport or the like (see FIGS. 5 and 6).

  When payment is made in cash, the management server 11 manages the breakdown of the purchased items and the payment amount, etc., after receiving the personal identification code and confirming only that the purchase has been made at the ex-post duty-free shop 17. . Then, the foreigner can confirm the additional tax that can be refunded by the dedicated device 15 later using the personal identification code (here, passport number or social security number).

  When the approval is made through the above process, the refund information related to the foreigner is accumulated in the refund database server 13 (S413). As described above, when the payment to be paid is approved (S411), if it is a general credit card, the entire payment amount is paid to the post-tax free shop 17. At this time, the ex-post duty-free shop 17 can collectively check the details of the ex-post duty-free transaction and the refund amount related to the sales floor through the dedicated device 15, and refer to such contents for the refund amount to the dedicated device 15. Deposit money. By the way, the deposit process as described above can be performed directly by the ex-post duty-free store 17 through the dedicated device 15, but can also be processed through a financial institution. In other words, the ex-post duty-free shop 17 can make it possible to transfer the refund amount to the entity operating the management server 11 through a financial institution such as a bank.

  When the payment is made with the exclusive prepaid card and the approval is made, the card issuing company 19 pays the post-tax-free shop 17 by subtracting the additional tax corresponding to the refund in advance, and the refund is settled separately. That is, when the card issuing company 19 operates the management server 11 itself as in the above-described embodiment, internal settlement is sufficient, and when the separate management server 11 is operated as in other embodiments. Is settled between the card issuing company 19 and the company. Of course, the refund information required at this time is referred to through the management server 11. It is also possible to make a payment to the dedicated device 15 as described above, but in some embodiments, the refund can be automatically recharged to the dedicated prepaid card again. It is also possible to induce all the additional taxes received to be consumed domestically. Such a recharging procedure can be easily performed by transmitting the amount information corresponding to the refund amount to the card sales database server and increasing the remaining amount accordingly.

  Under the domestic refund system, the refund is confirmed after it is confirmed by the customs. Conventionally, for such a confirmation procedure, a refund slip should be issued and stored one by one, but according to the present invention, confirmation and output can be performed collectively by the dedicated device 15.

  As shown in FIG. 10, when a foreigner tries to receive a refund of the additional tax when leaving the country, a statement that allows confirmation of the breakdown of the refund information can be received using the output function of the dedicated device 15 according to the present invention. That is, when any one of the personal identification code of the card number, passport number, and social security number is input (S713), the management server 11 receives the data and the refund database server 13 has the refund information for the foreigner. Confirm whether or not to perform (S715) so that the specification can be output (S717).

  As shown in FIG. 8, a foreigner who wants to receive a refund of the additional tax must receive a refund using the additional tax refund function of the dedicated device 15 after receiving confirmation (stamping) of the above description at customs. And confirming whether the refund information exists after receiving the input of the personal identification code (S513, S515), receiving the description of the confirmation that the refund information exists (S517), customs, etc. If there is no problem after confirming whether it is a legitimate seal of the related institution (S519), it is processed so that additional tax can be withdrawn (S521).

  However, the above-mentioned process is a refund procedure in the case where it is necessary to take a procedure of refunding the additional tax after confirming the description under the current system, but the refund can be made even if there is no separate confirmation systematically. If possible, it is obvious that the system can be configured so that a refund can be made only by confirming the existence of the personal identification code and the refund information by omitting the procedure for outputting the description. 9).

  A foreigner who purchases and uses a dedicated prepaid card can also return the card through the dedicated device 15 and receive a refund of the remaining amount. At this time, the management server 11 generates and stores information that the card is returned and refunded. The return of the card can be achieved by causing the dedicated device 15 to read the card, confirming the validity of the card, and then collecting the card through the slot for return and then paying the remaining amount.

  Since the management server 11 and the refund database server 13 have all the refund target settlement information performed at each subsequent duty-free shop 17, the subsequent duty-free shop 17 is information related to itself through the dedicated device 15 connected thereto. The management server 11 can automatically transmit the reporting material to the national tax management system of the taxation office, reduce the work burden of the ex post duty-free shop 17 and correct the accuracy of the reporting material. Can be expected.

  As described above, the present invention has been described with reference to the limited embodiments and drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the technical idea of the present invention can be determined by those having ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which the present invention belongs. It goes without saying that various modifications and changes can be made within the equivalent scope of the claims described below.
