I have a timid question, what is the tax refund process at Madrid airport? Do I need to show the items I bought to customs or any other staff? Can I just pack them and check them in for my flight and then go through the tax refund process ? Spain Q&A
When renting a car, there is an option to indicate whether to take the car out of the country and where to go. If you write down the country you are going to, it should be fine. I rented a car in France before and drove to Italy and Switzerland. I didn't have enough time to go to Germany ? Spain Q&A
I don't know if it will affect my application for Schengen visa in the future. I had an infraction in Italy last year, but I have never received any letters. Neither have the car rental companies, so I have never dealt with it ? Spain Q&A
Is it safe to have luggage in the car at a paid parking lot? Some friends say that the security in Spain is not good, and people might break the glass and steal the luggage. But the luggage will definitely be in the car before checking in. Do I need to get glass insurance at the car rental company ? Spain Q&A
Just asking one last thing, I heard that the downtown of Paris is very congested...I'm a bit worried about my female driver navigating through the downtown of Paris. Is it recommended to take the subway to the suburbs and rent a car there ? Spain Q&A
Hello everyone! I will be in Madrid and Barcelona from August 14th to 19th. Is it safe? Are pickpockets particularly common? Is it safe for the 18th at 9:30 PM to attend the Flamenco performance at the Palau de la Música Catalana in Barcelona, which ends at 11:00 PM? Thank you in advance ? Spain Q&A
I have returned the car, and there was a little scratch in Granada. The car dealership checked the mileage and fuel gauge when I returned the car, and said it was okay! There was nothing for me to sign either? How do you usually return a car ? Spain Q&A
Also when I picked up the car at the railway station, the car was very dirty on the outside, and there were many scratches, as well as a dent. When I asked the staff, they told me to tick the type of vehicle problem myself in the place below the contract. Is it useful to tick the problem myself like this ? Spain Q&A
Are there not many expressways in Portugal with toll booths where you need to take pictures? Aren't they the kind that can only be bound to credit cards or bought for three days ? Spain Q&A
Just change to the Granada train station to return the car, but can only return it early the third day. I want to know if I can return the car one day in advance, that is, the evening of the second day after I arrive in Granada. That day is Sunday. Is the car rental shop closed? Do you know ? Spain Q&A
It seems to be on the notary certificate. I asked the people at the notary office and they are not very clear. It is a district notary office. I will ask the city's on Monday. Shanghai can be handled online, can it be handled for other places ? Spain Q&A
I wonder if everyone has encountered this situation. We rented a car in Madrid yesterday and the staff asked us to buy scratch insurance, saying that if there is a problem, we have to pay 1650 euros. When renting a car, the app mentioned not to easily buy the packages they recommend, so we refused to buy. But this morning, we found that the car was scratched terribly. ? Spain Q&A
Hello everyone, I have a 18-day trip in mid-July. I plan to stay in Barcelona for 6 days first, then rent a car and drive to southern France to play for 6 to 7 days, and then return to Spain. How should I arrange the itinerary for the remaining 4 or 5 days in Spain (entering and exiting in Barcelona)? Everyone can give some suggestions for reference. ? Spain Q&A
I stayed for one night, drove into the parking lot, and the attendant appeared for the fee. When I picked up the car, the attendant was also there. My luggage is at that hotel, and it's hard to say if there's anyone watching overnight. The parking lot doesn't have a fence or a guard booth, but it still looks safe. After all, there are few outsiders in the small city, mostly tourists. If the luggage is left in the car overnight, don't open the trunk after parking, just cover it up so it's not visible from the outside ? Spain Q&A
