Read the cash and card guide before arrival if you are unsure whether your foreign card will work, how much cash to carry, or when transport cards and small shops may affect payment choices.
Shopping and tax refund planning
Use the tax refund guide before large purchases so you know what to keep, where refund counters may appear, and why customs or baggage checks can matter at the airport.
