And you don’t need to carry your purchases around like shopping in Paris because you’re already going to leave the country. The only disadvantage you might have is the limited selection at the boutiques.The example below is a calculation of the Chanel M/L Classic Flap Bag price differences between the tax-free at CDG airport and buying at a boutique in Paris.

I shopped at the Chanel CDG aeroport and it was so much cheaper than the store in Paris and hassle free. Great blog!
Hi Alina, yes easy and convencient too. What bag did you buy?
Hello, I am confuse about the shopping at CDG, so when i arrive in Paris, can I buy at the stores there and get the “Airport tax free price”?
Or I can only get the “tax free” when leaving Paris?
Thank you!
Hi Paula, if you shop at CDG airport, at the tax-free area. You won’t need to tax-refund, it’s calculated in your purchases.
If you go to the city Paris and buy in stores, you have to pay the taxes first. Then you get documents from the SA for tax-refund. With the document, you get a stamp from the custom at the airport. Then take this document to a tax-refund counter like Global Blue and get your tax back.
