Thai Airways International Public Company Limited (THAI) is partnering with utu to offer more choices and value for travelers eligible for tax refunds as a part of the biggest upheaval in the history of tax-free shopping. However, from December 2, 2021, passengers registered with THAI’s Royal Orchid Plus loyalty program will receive a dramatic 25% uplift in Royal Orchid Plus miles for their tax refunds - even when traveling with another carrier. THAI is the latest major carrier to join utu’s new service, which aims to revolutionize tax-free shopping. It allows travelers to claim the Value-Added Tax (VAT) or Goods & Services Tax (GST) for purchases in countries they visit. We have been cooperating with our business partners to provide an innovative array of valuable choices to Royal Orchid Plus members.
