Jinggoy Ejercito Estrada is calling for the legislation of a value-added tax (VAT) refund mechanism for foreign tourists to further boost visitor arrivals in the country.
He said this will allow foreign tourists to get a rebate of the 12% VAT on goods they bought from the Philippines, similar to the practice of other countries.
