Shopping Deals in Dubai

Q: Are clothes tax-free in Dubai?

Like all products on sale, clothing items in Dubai have a 5% VAT (value added tax) included in or added to the listed price. However, if you are a tourist in Dubai, you can claim a VAT refund on all your spends – find out how.

Q: What months have the highest sales in Dubai?

The winter months in Dubai, and especially December and January, typically see the highest sales. This is because it is the high season for travel and the citywide annual retail event, Dubai Shopping Festival , takes place during this time. A very popular festival that has been running for over 25 years, shoppers can enjoy incredible discounts and exclusive deals across malls, stores and pop-ups over a period of six weeks. It is also a wonderful season for family events and outdoor experiences.

Q: Which month is the best for discounts in Dubai?

When it comes to discounts in Dubai, there's something on offer every day across the city's many malls and stores. However, as Dubai is home to dedicated annual retail celebrations, the best time for incredible deals and rates is during the Dubai Summer Surprises (summer months) and Dubai Shopping Festival (December and January). With daily limited-time offers, grand prizes, special discounts (even up to 80% off) across shopping destinations, automobile showrooms, restaurants and hotels – as well as fun events for everyone – there's no better time to shop than during these festivals. Shopaholics can also look forward to the 3 Day Super Sale, which takes place twice a year across top stores, or the exclusive online sales that run throughout the year on regional e-commerce sites. There are also plenty of retail offers to take advantage of during festive occasions like Ramadan, Eid and Diwali. Meanwhile, gadget lovers won't want to miss Gitex Shopper – it is the region's biggest event for consumer electronics sales and typically takes place during the autumn or winter months.
