Handwritten restaurant receipts out from Aug 1

As of Thursday, August 1, food service enterprises will be obliged to use machines to issue receipts, such as a registered till or tax receipt printer.

The measure means that the still widespread custom of using handwritten receipts or order slips will not do anymore. 

According to Kathimerini, the obligation concerns most enterprises, i.e. those that offer full meals and not just a component of a meal, or only delivery and takeaway services.
