Do you offer Tax-Free shopping?

Planning to shop Tax Free at UNIQLO? This guide explains who is eligible for Tax Free Shopping, how to obtain your Tax Free documentation in-store, and where to get support if you have questions about your refund.

Tax Free Shopping is available for store purchases only. At the moment, we are unable to offer Tax Free Shopping for online orders. Please enquire in-store at the time of purchase to receive the Tax Free documentation required for your selected provider.

Customers shopping at UNIQLO Madrid Gran Vía or UNIQLO Madrid Castellana will complete their Tax Free claim through PIE VAT. Customers shopping at other UNIQLO Spain stores will receive a Global Blue Tax Free Form.
 
Who is eligible for Tax Free Shopping?
Customers whose permanent residence is outside the European Union (EU) may be eligible for Tax Free Shopping.
 
Important
When requesting Tax Free Shopping in-store, please ensure all required information is provided accurately. Missing or incorrect information may result in delays or prevent your refund from being processed.

To receive your tax refund, your purchase must be validated by Customs before you leave the European Union (EU). Missing Customs validation may result in your refund not being processed.
How does Tax Free Shopping work?
 

UNIQLO partners with different Tax Free Shopping providers depending on the store where your purchase was made.

  • PIE VAT Tax Free Claims (Madrid Gran Vía and Madrid Castellana)

    If your purchase was made at UNIQLO Madrid Gran Vía or UNIQLO Madrid Castellana, the store will provide you with a 6-character claim code and your receipt.

    To complete your claim:

    1. Download the PIE VAT app or visit the PIE VAT website.
    2. Enter your 6-character claim code.
    3. Upload your receipt, passport, and travel information.
    4. Before leaving the EU, obtain Customs validation at your final point of departure from the EU.
    5. Submit the required information through the PIE VAT app or website for review.

    Once your claim has been approved, PIE VAT will process your refund. Please ensure you keep your printed receipt, as Customs validation is required to complete the process.

  • Global Blue Tax Free Claims (All Other UNIQLO Spain Stores)

    If you received a Global Blue Tax Free Form at the time of purchase, please follow the instructions provided on your Tax Free Form and visit the Global Blue website for information about the refund process and refund tracking.
