- Tourists in Thailand can claim a VAT refund on goods taken out of the country within 60 days if they shop at approved stores and spend at least 2,000 THB per store per day.
- To claim, keep receipts, obtain a P.P.10 form, have goods inspected by customs at the airport, and submit documents at the VAT Refund counter after immigration.
- Refunds are given in cash or digital wallet for amounts under 30,000 THB, and by bank draft or credit card for higher amounts; luxury goods require extra checks and must be declared twice.
- Refunds are denied if original invoices are missing, rules are not followed, or goods are not taken out of Thailand within 60 days.
