"Handwritten support" and "Abandon introduction" are not in time for the cash register corresponding to the reduced tax rate.
With the introduction of the reduction rate due to the consumption tax rate increase, the tax rate will differ depending on the product, but some retail stores are not able to implement due to a shortage of cash register items corresponding to the reduced tax rate, and calculators and handwritten receipt There are also stores that support it by hand.
At a tea shop in Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture, sales of food and drinks are 8%, and sales of miscellaneous goods and food and drinks in the tea space are 10%. However, the manufacturer has reported that production cannot keep up and delivery is expected to be after mid-November.
For this reason, from the day when the consumption tax rate was raised, products with a tax rate of 10% could not be accounted for at the cash register, and they were calculated using a calculator and handwritten receipts were handed to customers.

If the tax rate is different for the same product, it will be necessary to provide a detailed breakdown and submit it at the time of final tax return. However, since a cash register corresponding to the reduced tax rate has not been introduced, it is necessary to record it manually. There is a lot of trouble.
Mr. Junichi Aonuma, the owner of the coffee shop “Mountain and Valley”, says, “I think it's only possible to buy a new cashier because it lives longer than ours. The
