Tax-free Shopping

My SIL is heading to Dubai in a few days from the US. Does anyone know if it is typically cheaper in Dubai vs USA?
Does Louis Vuitton participate in tax free shipping and will she get the 5% VAT return?
TIA!

Since a Monogram Speedy 30 is $1160 in the USA and $1212 in Dubai (which translates almost exactly to the same $1160 before taxes), I don't think that it is a good deal.

Thank you for the response!
