The duty to display the total price and the duty of disclosure are intended to ensure that the consumer can compare prices and make informed consumer decisions. The Authority will act decisively against any factor who does not comply with his obligations and violates the rights of the consumer,” said Kobi Zarihan, who is in charge of the Authority for Consumer Protection and Fair Trade.
