Important Information 


Using other cards  

If you are eligible for the Tourist Refund Scheme but do not meet the Mastercard campaign requirements, you may still be eligible for the standard tourist GST refund using other eligible refund methods. 

However, the additional 30% campaign benefit requires the Downtown Refund to be credited to an eligible foreign Mastercard credit card. 

A Singapore-issued Mastercard does not qualify for the additional 30% campaign benefit. 


Returns and exchanges 

Once the tax refund has been completed, the purchase is no longer eligible for return or exchange. 

This applies whether you receive only the normal tourist GST refund or also participate in the additional 30% campaign. 

 
Frequently Asked Questions
 

1. Is the extra 30% calculated from my UNIQLO purchase amount?

No. The additional 30% is calculated from your GST refund amount, not from the total value of your UNIQLO purchase. 

For example, if your normal GST refund is S$60, the additional 30% would be S$18, not 30% of the original purchase price.

2. I am eligible for a GST refund but do not have a foreign Mastercard. Can I still receive a tax refund?

Yes. If you meet the Tourist Refund Scheme requirements, you may still be eligible for the normal tourist GST refund using other eligible refund methods. 

However, you will not receive the additional 30% campaign benefit unless you meet the campaign requirements, including having the Downtown Refund credited to an eligible foreign Mastercard credit card.

3. I am an eligible tourist but have a Singapore-issued Mastercard. Can I receive the additional 30%?

A Singapore-issued Mastercard does not qualify for the additional 30% campaign benefit. 

If you are an eligible tourist but have a Singapore-issued credit card, you may still be eligible for the normal tourist GST refund. To qualify for the additional 30% campaign benefit, the Downtown Refund must be credited to an eligible foreign Mastercard credit card.

4. Do I need a promo code to receive the additional 30%?

Yes. A valid campaign promo code is required. 

Scan the campaign QR code available at participating UNIQLO stores and complete the registration to obtain your promo code.

5. Can I return or exchange my purchase after completing the tax refund?

No. Once the tax refund has been completed, the purchase is not eligible for return or exchange.
