Louisiana offers tax free shopping for foreign visitors starting in 1989 c Cloudy i fair p partly loud r rain supplied by the associated press Baton Rouge la. A Louisi Ana is becoming the first state to give sales tax rebates to foreign visitors above designed to boost the tourism Industry and create jobs in a state plagued by double digit unemployment. The state will join 17 european coun tries that offer similar refunds next year under a Bill gov. Buddy Roemer was cosign into Law Friday. I think it is a fantastic concept for usin that we Are the first in the nation to do it said it. Gov. Paul Hardy who Servetas the head of Louisiana s department of culture recreation and tourism. The program which the state Hopes to implement in Early 1989, will offer the rebates Only for retail sales. Hotel Bills rental cars and restaurant and bar tabs will not be affected. While we re rebating Only the tax on shopping we will get More visitors pay ing the sales tax on everything else said Eugene Schrieber managing director of the world Trade Center in new Orleans. According to a world Trade Center study 301,000 foreign tourists from coun tries other than Mexico and Canada visited Louisiana in 1986 to take in such attractions As new Orleans French Quarter pre civil War Plantation mansions in Southern Louisiana and the cajun country. During that year Louisiana attracted3.4 percent of overseas tourists who came to the United states ranking it15th among the states. I Don t think Louisiana is getting its fair share said Hardy who campaigned last fall on the theme of building Testate s tourism Industry. Schrieber said the state will make up forthe lost sales tax Revenue on retail Pur chases when tourism increases by 12 per cent. Backers believe the program will boost tourism by 26 percent which would Cre ate 1,200 new jobs hike payrolls by $12million and give the state a $2.2 million Revenue increase after the tax rebates Schrieber said. Louisiana s unemployment rate which was 10.6 percent in May has been in double digits since the collapse of Oiland Gas prices in the Early 1980s. Under the new Law retailers who Otto participate in the program will pay an annual $100 fee to be listed in a tax free shopping guide Given to foreign tourists. A foreign tourist buying an item in participating store will show a passport and a roundtrip airline ticket indicating his stay is less than three months and receive a refund form from the  refund will be obtained at a Louisi Ana Airport or by mail. During legislative debate some Law makers questioned the Wisdom of offer ing the rebate at the same time they were imposing a 2-cent sales tax hike on food motor fuel and utilities in an Effort to balance the state budget. But state sen. Bill Mcleod compare the rebate to loss leaders that grocery stores use to attract customers. They tourists will save a pittance and leave a lot he said. Schrieber said that while foreigners will not flock to Louisiana merely to take advantage of the refund the program will provide More visibility for the state s Younst attractions
