The Government has announced a monthly lottery on the basis of VAT compliant receipts issued to consumers for trying to reduce VAT fraud. From the last of October, every single VAT receipt issued in the country will display a unique number, which will be automatically entered into a monthly cash-prize draw run by the government. There will be 1,000 winners each month. Those winners will be exempted from income tax.
