There was a change a few years ago here in Germany where they made them compulsory for some reason related to preventing tax fraud. Not sure if other countries did something similar.
Sweden has kinda like that, they can still ask you but if you're buying a cheap pizza, pay cash and if they don't ask you can be pretty sure it's tax fraud. I sometimes ask for a receipt in these places and the cashier will look mighty upset when he enter the transaction into the register.
