About Moncler.

Founded in 1952 in Monestier-de-Clermont, France (hence “Mon-cler”), Moncler began as a mountain expedition outfitter supplying sleeping bags and tents to Italian mountaineers. The brand revolutionized luxury outerwear with down-filled jackets that balanced technical performance with high fashion. Remo Ruffini acquired Moncler in 2003 and transformed it into a global luxury powerhouse through “Moncler Genius” (2018)—inviting designers like Pierpaolo Piccioli, Craig Green, and Palm Angels to reinterpret the puffer jacket. Today, Moncler jackets are status symbols on ski slopes and city streets worldwide.

Frequently asked questions.

Can I get VAT refund on Moncler online purchases?

No. VAT refunds are only available for in-store purchases made in Europe. Online orders shipped internationally are already VAT-exempt.

Do I need to show my Moncler purchase at customs?

High-value items (typically over €1,000) may require physical inspection at customs. Keep your purchase in carry-on luggage, not checked bags.

What if I'm connecting through a non-EU airport?

You must validate your VAT refund at your last EU point of departure, not your final destination.

How long does it take to get my refund?

With TravelMoney, refunds are processed instantly once validated at customs. Standard tax-free services can take 4-12 weeks.
