Hey, globetrotters and shopaholics, listen up! If you’re planning a trip to the UAE, get ready to reclaim some cash from your shopping sprees.

The UAE has just launched a nifty app called “Tourist Refund” that makes claiming VAT refunds a breeze

No more keeping all your receipts and running around to get them validated. A new app called Tourist Refund is coming soon, which will make the process much easier.

To claim your tax refund, you’ll need to spend at least Dhs250 on goods that you’re taking out of the country. You’ll also need to request a tax-free purchase when paying.

When you’re leaving the UAE, simply show your passport and receipts at the airport and you’ll get your refund.

Here are some tips for making the most of the tax refund scheme:

  • Keep an eye out for the Tourist Refund app when it launches. It’s sure to make the process even easier.
  • Plan your shopping wisely. If you’re buying multiple items from the same store, ask them to combine the receipts so you can claim a single refund.
  • Don’t forget to request a tax-free purchase when paying.
  • Keep your passport with you at all times when shopping.
  • Have your receipts ready when you’re leaving the UAE.

With a little planning, you can save a lot of money on your trip to the UAE. So start shopping!
