Mr. Liu from p>91 provinces asked: A few days ago, a customer spent money in my restaurant, and I provided him with a note at the checkout. Only two orders were recorded on the bill, totaling 7.71 euros. But he said it was not normal, and the restaurant information should be provided on the bill. I would like to ask, do I have to provide restaurant information on my bill? What information is necessary?

Lawyer's reply:

Article 1 of the regulations of October 3, 1983 stipulates that if the consumption exceeds 15 euros (including tax), the restaurant is obliged to issue the bill before the customer pays. For consumption below this amount, it is not necessary to provide the bill, but the restaurant is obliged to provide it if the customer requests it.

In addition, Article 2 of the Regulation of June 8th, 1967 stipulates that the following information must be clearly stated in the bill of a restaurant:

-The time, store number and address of the meal

-What kind of official restaurant it belongs to, and whether it involves tourist restaurants

-The price classification of all services, whether it includes tax and the total consumption of customers

-Note? After tax price? Or? Including service charge? .

this regulation requires that information about value-added tax (TVA) be indicated in the bill. On the contrary, if a commercial customer asks for an invoice, the restaurant must provide the customer with a real invoice, that is to say, it should indicate the information of value-added tax, especially the total amount of consumption excluding tax and the tax paid according to the type of service. This kind of invoice allows customers to recover the amount of TVA from the company's reception fee and catering fee.
