I intend to try a new London tailor next month (one who doesn't visit the U.S.). As the tailor will require a deposit, with the balance due when the suit is completed, I'm wondering how the VAT refund works in such an instance.
There is a three-month expiration on refunds, but I won't have any goods to show customs when I leave the first time round (despite having paid a deposit incl. VAT). Is there an exception for deposits, with the cumulative bill shown when the completed goods leave the country?
Thanks,
GC
