Introduced by Taiwan’s Ministry of Finance in 1951, the Uniform Invoice Lottery encourages shoppers to request receipts to combat sales tax evasion. Lottery drawings occur bi-monthly on the 25th of odd-numbered months (e.g., March 25 for Jan-Feb receipts, September 25 for Jul-Aug receipts). Each receipt features an 8-digit unique serial number.
Prize tiers range from the Special Prize (NT$ 10,000,000) down to the Sixth Prize (NT$ 200). Crucially, the Special Prize (NT$ 10M) and Grand Prize (NT$ 2M) require all 8 digits to match exactly; partial matches on these numbers award zero prize money. Conversely, the First Prize (NT$ 200,000) provides tiered payouts: matching the last 7 digits wins Second Prize (NT$ 40,000), down to matching the last 3 digits for Sixth Prize (NT$ 200).
The prize claiming period lasts for three months starting from the 6th day of the month following the draw. For example, for July-August receipts drawn on September 25, the redemption window runs from October 6 through January 5.
