FAST RETAILING Consumption tax is also reduced in real terms with "total amount display"

Before the "total price display", which is the price of products and services plus the consumption tax, will be compulsory from next month, FAST RETAILING will keep the previous display prices of products such as UNIQLO. , We have decided to reduce the price by including the consumption tax.

FAST RETAILING currently displays the prices of products without tax, except for some items, and requires payment of the amount including consumption tax when accounting.

From the 12th of this month, the company will target almost all products of UNIQLO and GU before the "total price display", which is the price of goods and services plus the consumption tax, will be mandatory from next month. We have decided to reduce the price substantially by including the consumption tax without changing the list price up to.

For example, products with a tax-excluded price of 1990 yen are currently sold for 2189 yen, including 10% consumption tax, but in the future, they will be displayed and sold at a tax-included price of 1990 yen.

The company explains that if the current price including tax is displayed as it is, it will not be a sharp price and it will be difficult to understand, so we decided to sell the product at the current price.

Regarding the "total amount display", NTT DoCoMo will introduce a plan with a data usage of 20 gigabytes later this month, and it is assumed that it will be obligatory, such as reducing the monthly fee to less than 3000 yen including tax in order to compete with other major companies.
