On 1st January 2021 the rules for duty-free shopping in the UK changed.

Please note due to current coronavirus restrictions, Terminal 2 Duty Free is the only shop open at the moment.

We took a look at the biggest international shopping markets to find where travelers can get the lowest prices on luxury goods. Updated April ’20….Louis Vuitton Speedy 30 – Monogram Canvas. Lowest Price: $935 in France.

The majority of fashionistas will opt to buy their Louis Vuitton handbags in the United Kingdom or Europe, as most of the countries offer wonderful VAT refunds. Always remember that buying from a tax-free country like Dubai or Hong Kong does NOT mean you’ll be paying less; it all depends on the retail price of the bag.

In the UK, it’s only a 1 percent increase in price, while in Morocco and South Africa it’s actually cheaper than France – by 7 percent! The takeaway from this is that we need to invest … in Moroccan or South African friends who won’t mind carry an LV bag back for us next time they’re visiting home.
