About us


 

Headquartered in the heart of Europe, Safety Tax Free was created by a group of Chinese graduates of the Technical University of Munich with the mission of digitalizing and simplifying the tax refund process.

We have developed a practical mobile application to allow you to take control of your tax free shopping, eliminating waiting times at the airport, bureaucracy at the point of sale and providing you the highest refund rates available. Enter the future of tax refund and find out where you can shop in the most convenient way possible.
