Planet Payment

If you’re a tourist aged 18 or above, you can claim back Value Added Tax (VAT) on goods purchased in Dubai. You’ll need a receipt with a Tax-Free Tag, generated while shopping with your passport or GCC ID. Before check-in, you should validate your purchase at one of the Planet Payment kiosks in the Departures areas across DXB’s three terminals. You’ll receive 85% of the total VAT amount paid, minus an admin fee of AED4.80 per tax-free form.
