The Japanese government and ruling parties have decided to abolish the system allowing foreign students and other long-term residents to make duty-free purchases, in response to suspected cases of reselling and complaints of cumbersome eligibility checks.
由于倒卖免税品的行为泛滥,且可免税人群资格审查繁琐经常面临投诉,日本政府和执政党决定废除允许外国留学生等长期逗留者免税购物的制度。


Under the current system, foreign students staying long-term in Japan and not working part-time can make tax-free purchases within six months of entering the country.
根据现行制度,长期逗留的留学生如果没有在日本打工,允许在入境半年内免税购物。


Criticism has grown over the labor-intensive checks duty-free stores have to perform at the time of sale to confirm that a student is not working, while others have complained it is unfair that stores with lax screening procedures end up attracting more customers.
有人批评说,免税店在销售时需确认留学生是否在打工,要花费许多人力。还有些人则抱怨,审查程序宽松的商店最终却吸引了更多的顾客,这是不公平的。


The National Tax Agency also discovered many suspicious "binge buying" cases by foreign students after introducing a system to digitize purchaser information in April last year.
日本国税厅去年4月采用了顾客信息电子化机制,发现许多留学生存在可疑的"爆买"现象。


It believes they may be buying large quantities of duty-free goods to resell at higher prices, including a 10% consumption tax, to make a profit.
据称他们可能大量购买免税品,以含10%消费税的更高价格倒卖赚取差价。
