Latvia: a year left before the check lottery
As reported, the first draw of the Latvian Check Lottery must take place no later than July 2019 of the year. The check lottery is organized by the State Revenue Service together with Latvijas Loto. There will be two types of draws - weekly and monthly. During the weekly draws there will be 10 cash prizes - by 200 euro each, and the amount of the monthly drawing is 3000 euros.
It is planned to use all checks for an amount over 5 euro excluding value added tax (VAT). Participants will need to register checks online, specifying information about the place of receipt and your phone number, so that the SRS have the opportunity to contact the winners. The lottery has no age restrictions.
According to the plan of the Cabinet, check lottery will help the SRS to compare the checks submitted by buyers and information from the cash registers of various companies. For example, the SRS will be able to detect cases, when the check will be issued, but will not be registered or will be erased from the cash register.
The lottery will not be cheap for the state: the development of a special IT system will require 200 thousand euros, and the prize fund and administrative expenses - by 250 thousand euros in 2019 and 2020 years. But the authorities are planning, what will get from this venture more, what will be spent on its implementation.
The SRS considers, that the check lottery will bring additional 3 million euros thanks to a reduction in the number of dishonest traders, hiding from taxes. The Cabinet instructed the Ministry of Finance to increase forecasts for VAT receipts in 2019-2020 yy on 2,95 million. Latvians will start asking for checks and thereby help the SRS to fight unregistered cash registers, and as a result, Latvia will see the flourishing of fair trade and fair payment of taxes.
Economists: benefit is minimal
However, Lithuanian economists do not believe, that the lottery will bring tangible benefits to the state treasury. “Check lottery is aimed only at unaccounted trade turnover. But most of “shadows” in Lithuania - salaries in envelopes and smuggling. Here the check lottery is powerless, but in the area of unrecorded trade may help a little. I don't think, that it will be possible to reduce unaccounted sales by 10%, at least in the first year, but these 300 000 euro will definitely pay off. And probably, can get 1-2 million. additional taxes”, - said the senior economist of Swedbank Nerijus Machiulis before the launch of the lottery.
Vice President of the Lithuanian Free Market Institute Vytautas Zukauskas says, that a check lottery can have only a very small effect on stabilizing the shadow economy, reports “Lithuanian courier”.
“Most people, who buy goods from illegal or legal suppliers, who do not keep records of income, want to buy cheaper goods from them. In many cases, this is a kind of oral agreement.”, - says Zhukauskas.
According to the analyst, this treaty indicates, what if even the buyer knows, who buys an illegal service, however it is cheaper. “This is such a kind of contract, that no check lottery will ever break”, - the expert is convinced.

“Next year we will be able to assess, how the check lottery affected the markets. Since most of the people working there work for themselves, they will submit declarations for 2018 year only in spring 2019 years - then we can compare changes and trends 2018 and 2017 of the year”, - he thinks.
