Our government decided to extend benefits for tourists until April 2018!
This means that if guests go to a restaurant (or buy any gastronomic services) with their foreign credit card they will get a 10,5% back! This will be valid from 30 Oct 2017 to 30 April 2018. This is a friendly meassure besides the one that’s valid all year (no tax for accommodation at hotels for non-uruguayans) as well as tax free for all purchases above $600 Uruguayan Pesos (approx £16 GBP / USD20.-) – visitors get back 80% of their taxes within 5 days after presenting purchase recepit in ports/airports.
