TAX FREE
The airport information desk manages the Tax Free refund for Planet Payment.

The most important thing, if you want a refund, is to get the customs approval. To do this, you need to present your fully completed Tax Free form, together with your travel documents and purchased goods, to Customs at the airport. It is important that you do this prior to check-in.

If you want your refund on your bank account, it is very important that you fill in your card number on the form. This is the sixteen digit number written across the front of your credit-card.

Furthermore, it is important that the original receipt for the purchase is attached to the Tax Free form. If you want a copy of the receipt you can get that at the airport information, but in order to get the refund it is necessary that the original receipt is attached to the form.

The refund is 12% of the purchase amount if the purchase is between 300-1000dkk. If the purchase amount is higher, the refund gradually increases.

SIM CARDS
For a variety of international providers, the Faroe Islands is not included in the roaming arrangement. If you phone is not locked by your tele company, the best option is to buy a local SIM-card.

You can buy the local SIM cards at the information desk at the Airport, and in teleshops, kiosks, petrol stations, post offices, hotels and regional tourist centres across the country.

There are only two tele-providers in the Faroe Islands and the prices are about the same from both.

STAMPS
You can buy Stamps at the information desk. There is a postbox at the end of the terminal building.
