An Act Enhancing the Discount on the Purchase of Goods and Services of Senior Citizens and Persons with Disabilities
In plain language
The bill requires stores to give seniors and persons with disabilities the 20 % discount and VAT exemption on top of any sale or promotion, without needing to show a special ID booklet. It also lets businesses treat the discount cost as a tax‑deductible expense, and directs several government agencies to issue detailed rules within 15 days after the law is published.
