King Power Downtown Duty free shop is the first of its kind in Phuket followed by Sila Duty free shop. It is mostly a touristic place and is frequented by numerous bus tours operated by inbound companies. Business is for foreigners only, so one must have a foreign passport and departure air-ticket to present otherwise there is nothing to do here. Buying here means you will get selected goods on your departure from Thailand. However there are exceptions for goods marked with BLUE labels. Those are goods produced inside Thailand and you might get those right away paying first full price and collecting VAT refund inside the shop just at EXIT gates next to a cafe. Goods with WHITE price-tags are available to be picked by at Phuket or Bangkok international airports on departure after passport control only. Useful tips: Watch out for coupons distributed at Entrance hall by King Power staff when you register with passport. Try to avoid peak hours 17:00-20:00 when huge groups come in packs. Morning hours are best. Check out prices for goods in other shops before buying. Carry Thai Baht with you. Local exchange rate might fluctuate.

This duty free is the worst in terms of service and their representatives in the billing counters at the liquor centre are a complete dud. They have absolutely no idea what they do, confusing customers! And not packing things as per international standards. They have the concept of carry on and pick up at airport. I warn every TRAVELLER HERE, DO NOT CHOOSE THE OPTION OF CARRY AWAY OR TAKE AWAY. AFTER ENQUIRING MULTIPLE TIMES, WHETHER A TAPED BAG WOULD BE ALLOWED, THEY SAID YES BECAUSE IT HAS DUTY FREE BAG PRINT ON IT, IT WILL BE ALLOWED AS A CARRY ON. RESULTING IN A COMPLETE LOSS, AS CUSTOMS WON'T LET IT THROUGH, THOUGH THEIR BILL SAYS "PRODUCE THE ITEM TO CUSTOMS" TO COLLECT VAT REFUND, AS SPECIFIED BY THEIR STAFF , THE STAFF ARE WEAK IN COMMUNICATIONS AND WILL JUST NOD THEIR HEADS! REFRAIN FROM PURCHASING AT THIS DUTY FREE AND JUST PICK IT UP AT THE AIRPORT. WORST PART THEY SCHOOL YOU LATER SAYING IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT, LIKE ALL TRAVELLERS ARE NOT AWARE OF INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS ON LIQUIDS. STAY AWAY FROM ANY PLASTIC BAG THAT'S GIVEN BY THEM, EVEN IF IT IS TAPED HAVING THE DUTY FREE PRINT. YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO GET THEM THROUGH CUSTOMS.

Congested with bus loads of Chinese tourists. I find the prices are n way cheaper than the malls or outlet center. Staff are polite. You must register at reception (make sure to bring your passport or a photo of it). Its easy to find and offers ample parking for bikes and cars but when I showed up in the late afternoon there were about 8 coach tourist buses. The facility over all is very well maintained and spotless. Food court and Thai souvenir shop upstairs is worth the visit. Also remember an exit ticket will be required and items will be available at the international airport where you will depart Thailand, no land or sea option. The only goods available to take off the premises are thai souvenir from the upstairs shops.

A duty free mall with an outdoor parking lot full of tourist's buses and vans. It's pretty crowded all day. Most customers are Chinese tourists, same as other branches. So the housekeepers have a heavy duty to keep the restrooms in usable condition. Their staff are nice and helpful. There's a member lounge at the front corner where those with a member card can take a break during their shopping and get some nice coffee made fresh from a coffee machine, tea, or iced herbal beverages and snacks. There's a pricey food court at the back and a restaurant at another corner of the complex which offer a 400 baht lunch buffet and 600 baht dinner seafood buffet with currently come 3 pay 2 promotion (as of Jan 2017).

First time here. Buy with discount or VAT claim but the product need to pick up at last departure airport. Example: At Bangkok Airport or Phuket Airport before fly out of Thailand.
