- If consumption tax is shown as a separate amount, the pre-tax amount is used (e.g. ¥48,000 + ¥4,800 tax = ¥52,800 → judged on ¥48,000, no stamp). Writing only “tax included” does not count.
- Tax-exempt businesses must use the tax-inclusive amount.
- Receipts not issued in the course of business are exempt.
- Stamp duty applies to paper documents. Receipts sent electronically (e.g. PDF by email) are generally considered not to need a stamp; printed copies handed over are different. Ask the tax office about your case.
- The stamp must be cancelled with a seal or signature across it.
