Under the initiative, registered retail merchant tills in the Emirates will generate electronic invoices that will allow visitors to claim VAT refunds. The system is integrated for purchases at a variety of hotels, shopping centers, malls, and other retail locations.

Tourists will not be required to carry paper invoices to claim the refund, which they can collect in cash or transfer to a credit card on departure through one of Planet Tax-Free 100 self-service kiosks available at 13 airports or ports in the UAE.

Farm Bots:

Dubai also introduced Farm Bots. According to TDRA, the Farm Bot is not just a robot but more of an “agricultural visionary.” Its advanced sensors meticulously monitor soil conditions and optimize resource utilization.

Farm Bot also works by reducing water waste and minimizing chemical usage, heralding an era of sustainable agriculture for the benefit of humanity,” TDRA added.

This will not only help in the maintenance of the good quality of yield and agricultural activities but also reduce the costs of labor as well.
