Press Distribution Booths Closed Down in Tbilisi

Tbilisi. Media News. 08.02.06. The Press Distribution Service decided to close down the booths selling newspapers and magazines due to changes made to the Georgian Tax Code. The head of the Tax Department, Koba Abuladze, made comments in connection with this issue on February 8.

People carrying out economic transactions must now register any money they receive through a cash register.

This rule also concerns the press booths. The management of the Tax Department has called for the newsstands to purchase cash registers and after March 1, if they have not done so, they will be fined. The amount of the fines will vary from 1000GEL to 5000GEL.
