In a Bishkek café, shadow accounting and hidden revenue of 12 million soms were uncovered
According to the STS, three cafés managed by the same owner were found to have unregistered programs that were used for shadow accounting. This led to a portion of the revenue not being recorded in the official system. Additionally, café employees accepted payments through QR codes registered to private individuals, which also violates current legislation.
During the inspection, cash was found in the registers that was not supported by fiscal receipts. The estimated hidden revenue amounts to approximately 12 million soms, while the amount of unpaid taxes reaches about 648 thousand soms.
The tax service emphasizes that concealing income and maintaining double accounting are serious violations that can lead to both administrative and criminal consequences. The process of inspections by tax authorities is ongoing.
