No, however if you're in business, you can use the purchase VAT credit to offset the VAT that needs to be paid.

No ,but if you are into business you can take the credit of the purchase VAT and set it off with the VAT payable

No, as a resident of Dubai, you are not eligible for a VAT refund on goods purchased within the UAE. The VAT refund scheme is only available to tourists visiting the UAE who meet the eligibility criteria and purchase goods from retailers participating in the 'Tax Refund for Tourists Scheme'. Residents of the UAE are not eligible for this scheme.

I don't think you are eligible for a VAT refund on goods purchased, please consult a tax consultant for an exact answer.
