How to say “Do you have the receipt?” in German

Ask a customer whether they have proof of purchase.

Haben Sie den Kassenbon?

Do you have the receipt?

This is often a staff question; learners should recognize it during a return.

Use it in three situations

  1. At a shop counter

    Haben Sie den Kassenbon?

    Do you have the receipt?

  2. During an exchange

    Haben Sie den Kassenbon noch?

    Do you still have your receipt?

  3. Checking a purchase

    Könnte ich bitte den Kassenbon sehen?

    Could I see the receipt, please?

What to watch for

A receipt, an invoice, and a payment confirmation may use different local words.

Read the whole expression before replacing a detail. The natural wording may use a different order or construction from the English sentence.

A note on speaking German

Use Sie for formal address and du with people you address informally. Könnten Sie …? is a useful polite request. Keep noun capitals and the verb position shown in each complete sentence.

The examples preserve German accents and ß. Read a full sentence before replacing a detail: a subordinate clause can move the verb to the end, and case can change an article or pronoun.
