Some of the statements in this prospectus constitute forward-looking statements that do not directly or exclusively relate to historical facts. You should not place undue reliance on such statements because they are subject to numerous uncertainties and factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, including descriptions of our business strategy. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “could,” “may,” “would,” “should,” “intend,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “will,” “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “positioned,” “strategy,” “outlook” and similar expressions. All such forward-looking statements involve estimates and assumptions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed in the statements. Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements are the following:

•currency translation and transaction risk;

•impairment of intangible assets;

•the control by Silver Lake Management Company III, L.L.C. (or its affiliates) (“Silver Lake”) over us, and potential differences in the interests pursued by Silver Lake from the interests of our other securityholders;

•requirement for prior consent of or post-closing notification to the Bank of Italy, as well as restrictions and other requirements, for acquiring a direct or indirect substantial stake in our share capital, for so long as Global Blue Currency Choice Italia S.r.l.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, you should keep in mind that any event described in a forward-looking statement made in this prospectus or elsewhere might not occur.

Our Group

Global Blue serves as a strategic technology and payments partner to merchants, empowering them to capture the structural growth of international shoppers, driven by multiple long-term macroeconomic tailwinds. Global Blue established the concept of TFS in Sweden in 1980 and has emerged as both a global leader (based on its share of the Tax Free Shopping Segment (TFSS)) and a pioneer in technology for Tax Free Shopping according to management. Global Blue also offers AVPS, including DCC for which Global Blue is a leading provider. Finally, Global Blue also offers Complementary Retail Tech Solutions (CRTS) following the business combinations with ZigZag Global, an e-commerce returns platform and Yocuda, an eReceipts technology solution to help merchants migrating from paper to digital receipts. As of March 31, 2022, Global Blue operated across more than 50 countries. For the financial year ended March 31, 2022, Global Blue enabled millions of international shoppers to claim VAT refunds on international shopping or complete international transactions in their home currency. At its core, Global Blue is a technology platform that serves a network of more than 400,000 merchant stores globally through TFSS, AVPS and CRTS, facilitating millions of transactions and delivering economic benefits to a complex ecosystem of merchants, international shoppers and customs and tax authorities.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Company’s securities carries a significant degree of risk.

14

SELLING SECURITYHOLDER

This prospectus relates to the offer and sale from time to time by the selling securityholder named in this prospectus, including their donees, pledgees, transferees or their successors, of 36,314,107 ordinary shares of the Company (which includes up to 27,027,138 ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the conversion privilege attached to the Series B Preferred Shares).

The following table sets forth the name of the selling securityholder, the number of ordinary shares and Series B Preferred Shares, beneficially owned by such selling securityholder at September 9, 2022, the maximum number of ordinary shares (assuming the conversion of all of the Series B Preferred Shares beneficially owned by such securityholder) which may be offered pursuant to this prospectus, and the number and percentage of ordinary shares and Series B Preferred Shares to be beneficially owned by each selling securityholder assuming all of the ordinary shares which may be offered by such selling securityholder pursuant to this prospectus are sold. The “Percentage of Ordinary Shares Owned after Offering” column is based on 201,226,883 ordinary shares outstanding, including 11,495,370 ordinary shares held in treasury and the “Percentage of Series B Preferred Shares Owned after Offering” column is based on 21,176,470 Series B Preferred Shares outstanding, in each case as of September 9, 2022.

We cannot advise you as to whether the selling securityholder will in fact sell any or all of its ordinary shares (including the ordinary shares to be issued upon exercise of the conversion privilege attached to the Series B Preferred Shares) as applicable. The selling securityholder may offer all or part of the ordinary shares for resale from time to time through public or private transactions, at either prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. Because the selling securityholder may offer all, some or none of its securities, no definitive estimate as to the number of ordinary shares or Series B Preferred Shares, as applicable, that will be held by the selling securityholder after an offering can be provided. A selling securityholder may sell or otherwise transfer all, some or none of such securities in any offering. See “Plan of Distribution.” The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the ordinary shares sold by the selling securityholder.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security. Therefore, beneficial ownership of the ordinary shares by the selling securityholder includes ordinary shares underlying the Series B Preferred Shares, as applicable, held by the selling securityholder that are currently exercisable or convertible or exercisable or convertible within sixty (60) days.

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that each of the selling securityholder, CK Opportunities Fund I, LP, CK Opportunities GP, LLC, Certares Opportunities LLC and Knighthead Opportunities Capital Management, LLC may be deemed to share voting and investment power with respect to ordinary shares held by the selling securityholder.

Except as described in the footnotes to the table below, the selling securityholder has not held any position or office or has had any other material relationship with us or any of our affiliates within the past three years other than as a result of his or her ownership of shares of equity securities. This information is based upon information provided by the selling securityholder. Selling securityholder information for each additional selling securityholder, if any, will be set forth in a prospectus supplement to the extent required prior to the time of any offer or sale of such selling securityholder’s ordinary shares, as applicable, pursuant to this prospectus. Any prospectus supplement may add, update, substitute, or change the information contained in this prospectus, including the identity of each selling securityholder and the number of ordinary shares registered on its behalf.

*    Less than 1%.

(1)    The number of ordinary shares listed for the selling securityholder assumes the conversion of all of the Series B Preferred Shares outstanding as of September 9, 2022 and does not include any Series B Preferred Shares that may be issued as the dividend-in-kind thereon.

(2)    In calculating the percentages, (a) the numerator is calculated by adding the number of ordinary shares held by such beneficial owners, the number of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of Global Blue Warrants held by such beneficial owner (if any) and the number of ordinary shares held upon the conversion of all Series A or Series B Preferred Shares held by such beneficial owner (if any); and (b) the denominator is calculated by adding the aggregate number of ordinary shares outstanding (including shares held in treasury), the number of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of Global Blue Warrants held by such beneficial owner, if any (but not the number of ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of Global Blue Warrants held by any other beneficial owner), and the number of ordinary shares held upon the conversion of all Series A or Series B Preferred Shares held by such beneficial owner, if any (but not the number of ordinary shares held upon the conversion of Series A or Series B Preferred Shares held by any other beneficial owner). The conversion ratio of Series A and Series B Preferred Shares to ordinary shares is one-to-one, subject to any adjustments pursuant to the applicable Conversion Agreement.

(3)    The percentages are calculated by dividing the number of Series B Preferred Shares held by a selling securityholder by the aggregate number of Series B Preferred Shares outstanding.

TAXATION

Switzerland Taxation

The following summary sets forth the material Swiss tax consequences of receiving, owning and disposing of ordinary shares.

This summary is based upon Swiss tax laws and the practices of the Swiss tax authorities in effect on the date of this prospectus. Such law and administrative practice is subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. The summary does not constitute tax advice and is intended only as a general guide. It is not exhaustive and shareholders should consult their own tax advisors about the Swiss tax consequences (and tax consequences under the laws of other relevant jurisdictions) of the acquisition, ownership and disposal of ordinary shares.

Material Swiss Tax Consequences Relating to Our Ordinary Shares

The following is a general summary of the principal consequences under Swiss law, as currently in effect, of an investment in shares by a holder that is not a resident of Switzerland.

Swiss Withholding Tax

Non-taxable and taxable distributions

Dividends and other similar cash or in-kind distributions (including scrip or stock dividends) on ordinary shares made or paid by Global Blue are subject to Swiss federal withholding tax (Verrechnungssteuer), currently at a rate of 35% (applicable to the gross amount of the taxable distribution). The Swiss withholding tax must be withheld by the Company on the gross amount of the dividend or other distribution and be remitted to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (Eidgenössische Steuerverwaltung). Dividends on ordinary shares made or paid by the Company out of capital contribution reserves (Reserven aus Kapitaleinlagen) confirmed by the Swiss tax authorities and distributions on ordinary shares made or paid by the Company based upon a reduction in the nominal value of ordinary shares (Nennwertherabsetzung) are exempt from Swiss withholding tax.

Provided, that the Company is not listed on a Swiss stock exchange, the Company will not be subject to restrictions on the payment of dividends out of capital contribution reserves applicable to Swiss listed companies. It is at the discretion of the Company to decide whether to distribute a dividend out of capital contributions reserves free of Swiss withholding tax and/or out of profit/retained earnings/non-qualifying reserves subject to Swiss withholding tax.

Capital gains realized on the sale of ordinary shares are not subject to Swiss withholding tax (other than in case of a sale to the Company (i) for cancellation, (ii) if the total of repurchased shares exceeds 10% of the Company’s share capital or (iii) if the repurchased ordinary shares are not resold within the applicable time period after the repurchase, if and to the extent the redemption price less the nominal value of the redeemed ordinary shares is not booked against confirmed capital contribution reserves).

Refund of Swiss withholding tax on taxable distributions

A holder of ordinary shares who is a resident of the U.S. for purposes of the U.S.-Swiss Treaty without a trade or business carried on through a permanent establishment in Switzerland to whom the shares are attributable or who is a qualified U.S. pension fund and who, in each case, is also the beneficial owner of the shares and the

17

dividend or other distribution and who meets the conditions of the U.S.-Swiss Treaty, may, if the holder is a qualified U.S. pension fund, apply for a full refund of the Swiss withholding tax, if the holder is a corporation owning at least 10% of Global Blue voting rights apply for a refund of the Swiss withholding tax withheld in excess of the 5% reduced treaty rate and in all other cases apply, for a refund of the Swiss withholding tax withheld in excess of the 15% treaty rate. The claim for a refund must be filed on Swiss Tax Form 82 (82C for corporations, 82I for individuals, 82E for other entities and 82R for regulated investment companies), which forms, together with the form providing instructions, may be obtained from the Swiss embassy or any Swiss consulate general in the U.S., the Swiss Federal Tax Administration at the address below or may be downloaded from the Swiss Federal tax Administration’s website. Four copies of the form must be duly completed and then signed before a notary public of the U.S. and three of them must then be sent to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, Eigerstrasse 65, CH-3003 Bern, Switzerland. The form must be accompanied by suitable evidence demonstrating the deduction of the Swiss withholding tax, such as certificates of deduction, bank vouchers or credit slips. The form must be filed no later than December 31 of the third year following the calendar year in which the dividend subject to the withholding tax became payable.

Swiss Securities Turnover Tax

Secondary market dealings in ordinary shares in which no Swiss domestic securities dealer (as defined in the Swiss Federal Stamp Duty Act, including a Swiss bank) is a party or an intermediary to the transaction are not subject to Swiss securities turnover tax (Umsatzabgabe). For secondary market dealings in ordinary shares in which a Swiss domestic securities dealer (as defined in the Swiss Federal Stamp Duty Act, including a Swiss bank) is a party or an intermediary to the transaction, Swiss securities turnover tax at a rate of 0.15% of the purchase price of our ordinary shares will be payable if none of the exemptions provided for in the Swiss Federal Stamp Duty Act apply. Subject to applicable statutory exemptions in respect of the parties to a transaction, generally half of the tax is charged to each of the parties.

Swiss Income Tax

Holders resident outside of Switzerland and not engaged in trade or business in Switzerland

A holder of ordinary shares who is not a resident of Switzerland for Swiss tax purposes, and who, during the applicable tax year, has not engaged in a trade or business carried on through a permanent establishment in Switzerland for tax purposes, is not subject to any Swiss federal, cantonal or communal income tax as a result of the receipt of dividends or other distributions on ordinary shares or in respect of any capital gains realized on the sale of ordinary shares. See “—Swiss withholding tax” above for a summary of the Swiss withholding tax treatment of dividends and other distributions and capital gains on ordinary shares. See “—International automatic exchange of information in tax matters” and “—Swiss facilitation of the implementation of the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act” below for a summary on the exchange of information in respect of holding ordinary shares in an account or deposit with a financial institution or paying agent in Switzerland.

Shares held as assets of a Swiss business

For a holder who holds ordinary shares as part of a trade or business conducted in Switzerland, dividends and other distributions, including capital repayments or distributions out of capital contribution reserves, made or paid by the Company on ordinary shares, and capital gains or losses realized on the sale of ordinary shares are included in (or deducted from) taxable income in the relevant taxation period for purposes of Swiss federal, cantonal and communal individual or corporate income tax. This taxation treatment also applies to private individuals who are Swiss residents and qualify as “professional securities dealers” for income tax purposes.

18

A Swiss corporation or co-operative, or a non-Swiss corporation or a non-Swiss co-operative holding ordinary shares as part of a Swiss permanent establishment, may benefit from relief from Swiss taxation of the dividends or other distributions, including capital repayments or distributions out of capital contribution reserves, by way of a participation deduction (Beteiligungsabzug) if our ordinary shares held at the time of the dividend or other distribution have a market value of at least CHF 1 million.

Swiss Wealth Tax and Capital Tax

Shares held by holders resident outside of Switzerland and not engaged in trade or business in Switzerland

A holder of ordinary shares who is not a resident of Switzerland for Swiss tax purposes, and who, during the applicable tax year, has not engaged in a trade or business carried on through a permanent establishment in Switzerland for tax purposes, is not subject to any cantonal and communal wealth or annual capital tax because of the mere holding of our ordinary shares.

International Automatic Exchange of Information in Tax Matters

Switzerland has concluded a multilateral agreement with the European Union on the international automatic exchange of information (the “AEOI”) in tax matters (the “AEOI Agreement”). This AEOI Agreement entered into force as of January 1, 2017 and applies to all 27 member states. Furthermore, on January 1, 2017, the multilateral competent authority agreement on the automatic exchange of financial account information and, based on such agreement, a number of bilateral AEOI agreements with other jurisdictions entered into force. The Federal Act on the International Automatic Exchange of Information in Tax Matters, which is the primary legal basis for the implementation of the AEOI standard in Switzerland, entered into force on January 1, 2017, as well.

Based on such multilateral agreements and bilateral agreements and the implementing laws of Switzerland, Switzerland collects and exchanges data in respect of financial assets, which may include ordinary shares, held in, and income derived thereon and credited to, accounts or deposits with a paying agent in Switzerland for the benefit of individuals resident in an EU Member State or in a treaty state. Switzerland has signed and is expected to sign further bilateral or multilateral AEOI in tax matter agreements with other countries. Certain of these agreements entered into force on January 1, 2020, or will enter into force at a later date.

A list of such multilateral agreements and bilateral agreements of Switzerland in effect or signed and becoming effective can be found on the website of the State Secretariat for International Finance (SIF) (https://www.sif.admin.ch/sif/en/home/multilateral-relations/exchange-information-tax-matters/automatic-exchange-information/financial-accounts.html).

Swiss Facilitation of the Implementation of the U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act

Switzerland has concluded an intergovernmental agreement with the U.S. to facilitate the implementation of FATCA. The agreement ensures that the accounts held by U.S. persons with Swiss financial institutions are disclosed to the U.S. tax authorities either with the consent of the account holder or by means of group requests within the scope of administrative assistance. Information will not be transferred automatically in the absence of consent, and instead will be exchanged only within the scope of administrative assistance on the basis of the double taxation agreement between the U.S. and Switzerland. On September 20, 2019, the protocol of amendment to the double taxation treaty between Switzerland and the U.S. entered into force allowing U.S. competent authority in accordance with the information reported in aggregated form to request all the information on U.S. accounts without a declaration of consent and on non-consenting non-participating financial institutions.

19

On October 8, 2014, the Swiss Federal Council approved a mandate for negotiations with the U.S. on changing the current direct notification-based regime to a regime where the relevant information is sent to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, which in turn provides the information to the U.S. tax authorities.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations to U.S. Holders

The following is a discussion of material U.S. federal income tax considerations to U.S. Holders (as defined in this prospectus) relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the ordinary shares as of the date hereof. The discussion below only applies to the ordinary shares held as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes and does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to holders in light of their particular circumstances, including alternative minimum tax and Medicare contribution tax consequences, or holders who are subject to special rules, such as:

•    financial institutions or financial services entities;

•    insurance companies;

•    government agencies or instrumentalities thereof;

•    regulated investment companies and real estate investment trusts;

•    expatriates or former residents of the United States;

•    persons that acquired the ordinary shares pursuant to an exercise of employee share options, in connection with employee share incentive plans or otherwise as compensation;

•    dealers or traders subject to a mark-to-market method of tax accounting with respect to the ordinary shares;

•    persons holding the ordinary shares as part of a “straddle,” constructive sale, hedging, integrated transactions or similar transactions;

•    a person whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

•    partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes or investors in such entities;

•    holders that are controlled foreign corporations or passive foreign investment companies ("PFICs");

•    a person required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to the ordinary shares as a result of such income being recognized on an applicable financial statement;

•    a person actually or constructively owning 10% or more of the ordinary shares, Series A Preferred Shares and Series B Preferred Shares; or

•    tax-exempt entities.

This discussion does not consider the tax treatment of entities that are partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes or persons who hold the ordinary shares through such entities. If a partnership or other pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes is the beneficial owner of ordinary shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of partners of the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partners and the activities of the partner and the partnership.

This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations all as of the date hereof, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus may affect the tax consequences

20

described in this prospectus. This discussion does not take into account potential suggested or proposed changes in such tax laws which may impact the discussion below and does not address any aspect of state, local or non-U.S. taxation, or any U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes. Each of the foregoing is subject to change, potentially with retroactive effect. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to their particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. jurisdiction.

THIS DISCUSSION IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF THE MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF ORDINARY SHARES. EACH HOLDER OF ORDINARY SHARES IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SUCH INVESTOR, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, AND NON-U.S. TAX LAWS, AS WELL AS U.S. FEDERAL TAX LAWS AND ANY APPLICABLE TAX TREATIES.

U.S. Holders

A “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of ordinary shares, who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•    an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

•    a corporation (or other entity classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•    an estate, the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or

•    a trust if: (i) a court within the United States can exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust, and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; or (ii) the trust has a valid election in place be treated as a U.S. person.

This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations with respect to holders other than U.S. Holders.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

Certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could apply to a U.S. Holder if we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which the U.S. Holder holds ordinary shares. A non-U.S. corporation, such as the Company, will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year in which, after applying certain look-through rules, either (i) 75% or more of its gross income for such year consists of certain types of “passive” income or (ii) 50% or more of the value of its assets (generally determined on the basis of a quarterly average) during such year produce or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, annuities, net gains from the sale or exchange of property producing such income and net foreign currency gains. For purposes of the PFIC income test and asset test described above, if the Company owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the total value of the outstanding shares of another corporation, it will be treated as if it (a) held a proportionate share of the assets of such other corporation and (b) received directly a proportionate share of the income of such other corporation.

We do not currently expect the Company to be treated as a PFIC for the current taxable year or for foreseeable future taxable years. This conclusion is a factual determination, however, that must be made annually at the close of

21

each taxable year and, thus, is subject to change. There can be no assurance that the Company will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year.

If the Company were to be treated as a PFIC, U.S. Holders holding ordinary shares could be subject to certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences with respect to gain realized on a taxable disposition of ordinary shares (or shares of any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are PFICs) and certain distributions received on such ordinary shares (or shares of any of the Company’s subsidiaries that are PFICs). Certain elections (including a mark-to-market election) may be available to U.S. Holders to mitigate some of the adverse tax consequences resulting from PFIC treatment. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to their investment in the Company.

Taxation of Distributions

A U.S. Holder generally will be required to include in gross income the amount of any cash distribution paid on ordinary shares treated as a dividend. A cash distribution on such ordinary shares generally will be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent the distribution is paid out of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Such dividends paid by us will be taxable to a corporate U.S. Holder at regular rates and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to domestic corporations in respect of dividends received from other domestic corporations.

Distributions in excess of such earnings and profits generally will be applied against and reduce the U.S. Holder’s basis in such holder’s shares (but not below zero), and any excess will be treated as gain from the sale or exchange of such ordinary shares as described below under “—Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of the ordinary shares.” It is not expected that the Company will determine earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, U.S. Holders should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend.

Any dividends received by a U.S. Holder (including any withheld taxes) will be includable in such U.S. Holder’s gross income as ordinary income on the day actually or constructively received by such U.S. Holder. Such dividends received by a non-corporate U.S. Holder will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code. With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, certain dividends received from a “qualified foreign corporation” may be subject to reduced rates of taxation. A qualified foreign corporation includes a foreign corporation that is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that the U.S. Treasury Department determines to be satisfactory for these purposes and that includes an exchange of information provision. A foreign corporation is also treated as a “qualified foreign corporation” with respect to dividends paid by that corporation on shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that the ordinary shares, which are listed on the NYSE, will be readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. There can be no assurance, however, that the ordinary shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in later years or that the Company will be eligible for the benefits of such a treaty. Non-corporate U.S. Holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from the risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of the Company’s status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules to their particular circumstances.

22

Non-corporate U.S. Holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received from the Company if it is a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year (see “—Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules” above).

The amount of any dividend paid in euros will equal the U.S. dollar value of the euros received calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is received by a U.S. Holder, regardless of whether the euros are converted into U.S. dollars. If the euros received as a dividend are converted into U.S. dollars on the date they are received, the U.S. Holder generally will not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. If the euros received as a dividend are not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, you will have a basis in the euros equal to their U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any gain or loss realized on a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the euros will be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss.

As described more fully in “—Switzerland Taxation—Material Swiss Tax Consequences Relating to Our Ordinary Shares—Swiss Withholding Tax—Refund of Swiss withholding tax on taxable distributions” above, a U.S. Holder who is not a resident in Switzerland and who does not hold ordinary shares as part of a trade or business carried on through a permanent establishment in Switzerland may be entitled to a full or partial refund of Swiss withholding tax deducted on dividends. A U.S. Holder may be required to properly demonstrate to the Company and the Swiss tax authorities its entitlement to the refund under the U.S.-Swiss Treaty. Subject to certain conditions and limitations (including a minimum holding period requirement) and the Foreign Tax Credit Regulations (as defined below), Swiss federal withholding taxes (Verrechnungssteuer) on dividends may be treated as foreign taxes eligible for credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability. For purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit, dividends paid on the ordinary shares will be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive category income. However, recently issued Treasury regulations that apply to taxes paid or accrued in taxable years beginning on or after December 28, 2021 (the “Foreign Tax Credit Regulations”) impose additional requirements for foreign taxes to be eligible for a foreign tax credit, and there can be no assurance that those requirements will be satisfied.

Instead of claiming a foreign tax credit, you may be able to deduct Swiss federal withholding taxes (Verrechnungssteuer) on dividends in computing your taxable income, subject to generally applicable limitations under United States law (including that a U.S. Holder is not eligible for a deduction for foreign income taxes paid or accrued in a taxable year if such U.S. Holder claims a foreign tax credit for any foreign income taxes paid or accrued in the same taxable year).The rules governing the foreign tax credit and deductions for foreign taxes are complex. U.S. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the Foreign Tax Credit Regulations and availability of the foreign tax credit or a deduction under their particular circumstances.

Extraordinary Dividends

Dividends that exceed certain thresholds in relation to a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in ordinary shares could be characterized as “extraordinary dividends” under the Code. A corporate U.S. Holder that has held ordinary shares for two years or less before the dividend announcement date and that receives an extraordinary dividend will generally be required to reduce its tax basis in such ordinary shares with respect to which such dividend was made by the non-taxed portion of such dividend. If the amount of the reduction exceeds the U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such stock, the excess is taxable as capital gain realized on the sale or other taxable disposition of ordinary shares and will be treated as described under “—Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of the Ordinary Shares” below. A non-corporate U.S. Holder that receives an extraordinary dividend will generally be required to treat any loss on the sale of ordinary shares as long-term capital loss to the extent of the extraordinary dividends the

23

U.S. Holder receives that qualify for taxation at the special rates discussed above under “—Taxation of Distributions.”

Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of the Ordinary Shares

Subject to the PFIC rules discussed above, upon a sale or other taxable disposition of the ordinary shares, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in ordinary shares.

Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for ordinary shares disposed of exceeds one year. Long-term capital gains recognized by non-corporate U.S. Holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss.

Tax Reporting and Backup Withholding

Individuals and certain domestic entities that are U.S. Holders will be required to report information with respect to such U.S. Holder’s investment in “specified foreign financial assets” on IRS Form 8938, subject to certain exceptions. An interest in the Company constitutes a specified foreign financial asset for these purposes. Persons who are required to report specified foreign financial assets and fail to do so may be subject to substantial penalties. U.S. Holders are urged to consult with their tax advisors regarding the foreign financial asset reporting obligations and their application to the ordinary shares.

Dividend payments with respect to the ordinary shares and proceeds from the sale, exchange, or other disposition of the ordinary shares may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and possible U.S. backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. Holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes other required certifications, or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding and establishes such exempt status.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, and a holder generally may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by timely filing the appropriate claim for refund with the IRS and furnishing any required information.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the resale by the selling securityholder named in this prospectus, including its donees, pledgees, transferees or their successors, of 36,314,107 ordinary shares of the Company (which includes up to 27,027,138 ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the conversion privilege attached to the Series B Preferred Shares).

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the ordinary shares by the selling securityholder. However, the Company will pay the expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, transfer taxes and expenses incurred by the selling securityholder for brokerage, accounting or tax services or any other expenses incurred by the selling securityholder in disposing of the securities, associated with the sale of securities pursuant to this prospectus. The net proceeds to the selling securityholder will be the purchase price of the securities less any discounts and commissions borne by the selling securityholder.

The selling securityholder will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions, transfer taxes and expenses incurred by the selling securityholder for brokerage, accounting or tax services or any other expenses incurred by the selling securityholder in disposing of the securities. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the securities covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, NYSE listing fees and fees and expenses of our counsel and our independent registered public accountants.

The securities beneficially owned by the selling securityholder covered by this prospectus may be offered and sold from time to time by the selling securityholder. The term “selling securityholder” includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors in interest selling securities received after the date of this prospectus from a selling securityholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer. The selling securityholder will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. Such sales may be made on one or more exchanges or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at prices and under terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price or in negotiated transactions. Each selling securityholder reserves the right to accept and, together with its respective agents, to reject, any proposed purchase of securities to be made directly or through agents. The selling securityholder and any of its permitted transferees may sell its securities offered by this prospectus on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. If underwriters are used in the sale, such underwriters will acquire the shares for their own account. These sales may be at a fixed price or varying prices, which may be changed, or at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices relating to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The securities may be offered to the public through underwriting syndicates represented by managing underwriters or by underwriters without a syndicate. The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities offered if any of the securities are purchased.

Subject to the limitations set forth in any applicable registration rights agreement, the selling securityholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling the securities offered by this prospectus:

•purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer for its own account pursuant to this prospectus;

•ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;

•block trades in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

25

•an over-the-counter distribution in accordance with the rules of NYSE;

•through trading plans entered into by a selling securityholder pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act that are in place at the time of an offering pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement hereto that provide for periodic sales of their securities on the basis of parameters described in such trading plans;

•through one or more underwritten offerings on a firm commitment or best efforts basis;

•settlement of short sales entered into after the date of this prospectus;

•agreements with broker-dealers to sell a specified number of the securities at a stipulated price per share or warrant;

•in “at the market” offerings, as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at negotiated prices, at prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, including sales made directly on a national securities exchange or sales made through a market maker other than on an exchange or other similar offerings through sales agents;

•directly to purchasers, including through a specific bidding, auction or other process or in privately negotiated transactions;

•through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

•through loans or pledges of the shares, including to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof;

•by entering into transactions with third parties who may (or may cause others to) issue securities convertible or exchangeable into, or the return of which is derived in whole or in part from the value of, our ordinary shares;

•through a combination of any of the above methods of sale; or

•any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

In addition, a selling securityholder that is an entity may elect to make a pro rata in-kind distribution of securities to its members, partners or shareholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part by delivering a prospectus with a plan of distribution. Such members, partners or shareholders would thereby receive freely tradeable securities pursuant to the distribution through a registration statement. To the extent a distributee is an affiliate of ours (or to the extent otherwise required by law), we may file a prospectus supplement in order to permit the distributees to use the prospectus to resell the securities acquired in the distribution.

There can be no assurance that the selling securityholder will sell all or any of the securities offered by this prospectus. In addition, the selling securityholder may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, or in other transactions exempt from registration, rather than under this prospectus. The selling securityholder has the sole and absolute discretion not to accept any purchase offer or make any sale of securities if it deems the purchase price to be unsatisfactory at any particular time.

The selling securityholder also may transfer the securities in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors-in-interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this

26

prospectus. Upon being notified by a selling securityholder that a donee, pledgee, transferee, other successor-in-interest intends to sell our securities, we will, to the extent required, promptly file a supplement to this prospectus to name specifically such person as a selling securityholder.

With respect to a particular offering of the securities held by the selling securityholder, to the extent required, an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is part, will be prepared and will set forth the following information:

•the specific securities to be offered and sold;

•the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the proceeds to be received from the sale, if any, and other material terms of the offering;

•settlement of short sales entered into after the date of this prospectus;

•the names of any participating agents, broker-dealers or underwriters; and

•any applicable commissions, discounts, concessions and other items constituting compensation from the selling securityholder.

The selling securityholder may engage brokers and dealers and any brokers or dealers may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate in effecting sales of the shares. These brokers, dealers or underwriters may act as principals or as agents of a selling securityholder. Broker-dealers may agree with a selling securityholder to sell a specified number of the shares at a stipulated price per security. If the broker-dealer is unable to sell shares acting as agent for a selling securityholder, it may purchase as principal any unsold shares at the stipulated price. Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principals may thereafter resell the shares from time to time in transactions on any stock exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the shares are then listed, at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the then-current market price, at prices determined at the time of sale or at prices otherwise negotiated. Broker-dealers may use block transactions and sales to and through broker-dealers.

In connection with distributions of the securities or otherwise, the selling securityholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions. In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume with selling securityholder. The selling securityholder may also sell the securities short and redeliver the securities to close out such short positions. The selling securityholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions that require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction). The selling securityholder may also pledge securities to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial institution may effect sales of the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

In order to facilitate the offering of the securities, any underwriters or agents, as the case may be, involved in the offering of such securities may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our securities. Specifically, the underwriters or agents, as the case may be, may overallot in connection with the offering, creating a short position in our securities for their own account. In addition, to cover overallotments or to stabilize the price of our securities, the underwriters or agents, as the case may be, may bid for, and purchase, such securities in the open market. Finally, in any offering of securities through a syndicate of underwriters, the

27

underwriting syndicate may reclaim selling concessions allotted to an underwriter or a broker-dealer for distributing such securities in the offering if the syndicate repurchases previously distributed securities in transactions to cover syndicate short positions, in stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities above independent market levels. The underwriters or agents, as the case may be, are not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time.

The selling securityholder may solicit offers to purchase the securities directly from, and it may sell such securities directly to, institutional investors or others. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. The terms of any of those sales, including the terms of any bidding or auction process, if utilized, will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in our securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot give any assurance as to the liquidity of the trading market for our securities. Our ordinary shares and the Global Blue Warrants are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “GB” and “GB.WS,” respectively. The Series A Preferred Shares and Series B Preferred Shares are not listed on any stock exchange.

The selling securityholder may authorize underwriters, broker-dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions we or the selling securityholder pay for solicitation of these contracts.

A selling securityholder may enter into derivative transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. If the applicable prospectus supplement indicates, in connection with those derivatives, the third parties may sell securities covered by this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, including in short sale transactions. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by any selling securityholder or borrowed from any selling securityholder or others to settle those sales or to close out any related open borrowings of stock, and may use securities received from any selling securityholder in settlement of those derivatives to close out any related open borrowings of stock. The third party in such sale transactions will be an underwriter and will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement (or a post-effective amendment). In addition, any selling securityholder may otherwise loan or pledge securities to a financial institution or other third party that in turn may sell the securities short using this prospectus. Such financial institution or other third party may transfer its economic short position to investors in our securities or in connection with a concurrent offering of other securities.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling securityholder may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling securityholder in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

To our knowledge, there are currently no plans, arrangements or understandings between the selling securityholder and any broker-dealer or agent regarding the sale of the securities by the selling securityholder. Upon our notification by a selling securityholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with an underwriter or broker-dealer for the sale of securities through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution, secondary distribution or a purchase by an underwriter or broker-dealer, we will file, if required by applicable law or regulation, a supplement to this prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act disclosing certain material information relating to such underwriter or broker-dealer and such offering.

28

Underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may facilitate the marketing of an offering online directly or through one of their affiliates. In those cases, prospective investors may view offering terms and a prospectus online and, depending upon the particular underwriter, broker-dealer or agent, place orders online or through their financial advisors.

In offering the securities covered by this prospectus, the selling securityholder and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents who execute sales for the selling securityholder may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of those securities may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act.

The underwriters, broker-dealers and agents may engage in transactions with us or the selling securityholder, or perform services for us or the selling securityholder, in the ordinary course of business.

In order to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the securities must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in certain states the securities may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

The selling securityholder and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the securities will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the securities by, the selling securityholder or any other person, which limitations may affect the marketability of the shares of the securities.

We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling securityholder for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling securityholder may indemnify any agent or broker-dealer or underwriter that participates in transactions involving the sale of the securities against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling securityholder against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law. Agents, broker-dealers and underwriters may be entitled to indemnification by us and the selling securityholder against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribution with respect to payments which the agents, broker-dealers or underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
UNDER U.S. SECURITIES LAWS

The Company is incorporated in Switzerland and conducts a majority of its operations through its subsidiary, Global Blue Group AG, outside the United States. All of the Company’s assets are located outside the United States. A majority of the Company’s officers and directors reside outside the United States and a substantial portion of the assets of those persons are located outside of the United States. As a result, it could be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against the Company or against these individuals outside of the United States in the event that you believe that your rights have been infringed under the applicable securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws outside of the United States could render you unable to enforce a judgment against the Company’s assets or the assets of the Company’s directors and officers.

In addition, the Articles of Association provide for arbitration in Zurich, Switzerland for corporate litigation, including, without limitation, legal proceedings between the Company, its directors and its shareholders.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of ordinary shares has been passed on by Niederer Kraft Frey AG, Swiss counsel to Global Blue.
