Prison removed as only penalty for “sales receipt”

The majority did not withdraw from the decision to consider a criminal
act the failure business to issue a sales receipt, but they withdrew
from the decision to give three years of prison as the first penalty for
this act.

Prison is now the second option, after a fine has been issued based on the tax law. The Democratic Party is against considering the it as a criminal act.

Oerd Bylykbashi says the law is unclear if the penalty goes to the business owner or the salesman who fails to issue the receipt.

For this reason, the Democratic Party voted against, saying that the law only aims to scare businesses and raise inequality. The government says a harsher Criminal Code will reduce the informality in economy.
