How do I claim my GST refund?

Under certain circumstances, customers are eligible for a refund of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) that are purchased in Australia and are taken out of the country by the customer with them on a ship or plane. This is called the Tourist Refund Scheme (TRS).
This refund is not claimed or provided from the retailer; it is claimed in person at the TRS facility on the day of the customers departure.
