  **第一項**  地方団体は、法定外目的税を証紙徴収によつて徴収しようとする場合においては、納税者に当該地方団体が発行する証紙をもつてその税金を払い込ませなければならない。この場合においては、地方団体は、当該法定外目的税を納付する義務が発生することを証する書類その他の物件に証紙をはらせ、又は証紙の額面金額に相当する現金の納付を受けた後納税済印を押すことによつて、証紙に代えることができる。

  Where a local government intends to collect a non-statutory earmarked tax by collection by stamps, it must have the taxpayer pay the tax with stamps issued by that local government. In this case, the local government may, in lieu of stamps, have stamps affixed to documents or other articles certifying that an obligation to pay that non-statutory earmarked tax has arisen, or affix a tax-paid seal after receiving payment in cash equivalent to the face value of the stamps.

  **第二項**  地方団体又は特別徴収義務者は、納税者が証紙をはつた場合においては、証紙をはつた紙面その他の物件と証紙の彩紋とにかけて当該地方団体の印又は特別徴収義務者の印若しくは署名で判明にこれを消さなければならない。

  Where a taxpayer has affixed stamps, the local government or special collection agent must clearly cancel them with the seal of that local government or the seal or signature of the special collection agent, across the paper or other article on which the stamps are affixed and the design of the stamps.
