Stamp or No Stamp? 10 Surprising Receipts — Guess the revenue stamp on Japanese receipts

A free browser quiz about Japan's stamp duty on receipts for sales (Document No. 17-1). Each fictional receipt states the issuer (a VAT-registered company, a VAT-exempt sole trader, a dentist or lawyer in sole practice, an office worker selling a personal item and more), the amount, whether consumption tax is shown, and how it was paid (all cash or all credit card). Pick one of five buttons; you get a one-line reason and the deciding line on the receipt (issuer, tax amount or card payment) lights up. The ten receipts are drawn by the date in Japan time from forty checked against the National Tax Agency's Tax Answer and Q&A pages, so everyone gets the same ten that day. The result shows your score and your most surprising miss as a shareable image, and you can try ten more right away. These are fictional examples; for real cases, ask the tax office or a tax accountant.

How to play

  1. A fictional receipt appears. Check the issuer, the amount, how tax is shown and how it was paid

  3. You see right or wrong with a one-line reason, and the deciding line lights up. Open the NTA source if you like, then press Next
  4. After ten, see your score and share your most surprising miss as an image. A quick table of the brackets sits at the bottom
