Can I get a VAT refund as a non-EU citizen if I purchase online, or in store while visiting the UK?Updated a month ago

🛍️ VAT & Online Orders


For EU deliveries, VAT is charged at your country’s local rate 🇪🇺


For non-EU deliveries (including Channel & Canary Islands), VAT isn’t charged, but the checkout price stays the same ✅


The price you pay at checkout is final—no discounts or VAT refunds can be applied.


✈️ In-Store VAT Refunds (for non-EU visitors)

Yes! If you're shopping in-store while visiting the UK, you might be able to claim back VAT—but you’ll need to meet all of these:


✅ Live outside the EU

✅ Leaving the EU within 4 months of purchase

✅ Spend over £25

📝 Ask a staff member for a VAT refund form in-store

📍 Show your form at the UK Airport VAT office when leaving


Note: You must claim before leaving the UK. Claims made after departure or beyond 16 weeks won’t be valid.
