Do I need to download an app to use STAMP?

No, it’s not necessary.

You can register by yourself in store and get your personal STAMP ID by scanning the QR code and just share your ID at checkout. Merchants can register you too. Easy and fast!

Why do I have to share my contact details?

They become your STAMP ID. It links your passport and payment card info securely so you don’t have to re-enter them every time you shop in a store that offers Stamp.

Why do I need to provide my credit or debit card details?

The store places a temporary hold (pre-authorization) on your card for the VAT amount. This is just a security step, no actual charge, and it ensures your VAT savings are guaranteed after customs validation.

What about my passport or identity card? Why is it needed?

By law, only non-EU residents qualify for VAT-free shopping. Your passport and identity card confirms your residency status and lets you benefit from the VAT exemption.

What do I have to do at customs?

Within 90 days of your purchase, show your digital or paper invoice at customs when leaving the EU.

In Italy: present the invoice at the customs office.
In Spain: Present the invoice at the DIVA kiosk in the airport.

Other EU countries: show the paper invoice and send a photo of the stamped invoice to STAMP.

Make sure your goods are unused and ready for inspection.

Can I use STAMP at any store?

STAMP is offered in stores across Italy, including many popular boutiques and shops.

Look for the STAMP sign and ask for it at checkout!

You can also browse all participating stores directly in the STAMP app, so you always know where you can shop and save.

Do I have to stop using other TaxFree services?

No. STAMP doesn’t require exclusivity. You can use any service you like but once you stop paying VAT upfront, it’s hard to go back to waiting for a refund.
