Tax refund

If you have made purchases in affiliated stores in Norway and wish to get a refund on the value-added tax (VAT), you can do this through private companies such as Global Blue or Planet.

Here’s how it works:

• Purchase goods for over 315 NOK in an affiliated store.
• Request a tax-free check or form in the store before heading to the airport.
• Fill out the necessary information in the form, such as name, address, passport number, and credit card details.
• Make sure goods to be sent with luggage are presented to customs before check-in.
• At the airport, go to the Global Blue or Planet desk to get the validation stamp.
• Once the form is confirmed, the refund will be transferred to your credit card.

Important to remember:

• Goods must be exported within 30 days from the purchase date.
• Remember to fill out all Global Blue Tax Free and Planet forms with correct information before you arrive at the airport.
• Ticket, passport, and goods are checked before you receive the verification stamp.
• Refunds may take up to a few weeks to be credited to your account.

Visit the company’s website for full information on conditions/terms Global Blue and Planet.
