Hi, I want to buy an iPhone in London, UK. I am not a EU citizen and I don't live in UK (I just travel for work). Is the 20% tax refund still applicable? It's unclear if this Payment, Financing, Refunds and VAT - Shopping Help
relates only to online sales or generally speaking in the UK.

Kindly your advise.
 
I believe you have to have the item you want to purchase delivered to an address outside the UK to qualify for VAT relief. You would need to ask the retailer whether they can oblige. The rules are different for purchases in Northern Ireland.
 
Actually I want to buy it from Apple Store in London ... WDYT?
