Charities and Tax

Overview

  • Tax reliefs for charities
  • Get recognition for tax purposes
  • Reclaim tax – that’s been deducted, eg on bank interest and donations (this is known as Gift Aid).
  • Pay tax – on income that doesn’t qualify for tax relief and you must complete a tax return
Start planning towards filing your accounts, reports and returns now to avoid:
  • Late filing penalty of up to £1,500 – if more than 6 months late after deadline, for a registered Company limited by guarantee.
  • Damage to reputation – caused by being marked ‘overdue’ on the Charity Commission register or being removed from their register.
  • Adverse impact on future funding applications due to non-compliance with both basic statutory requirements and best practices.
Do you know?

A charity must submit accounts to the commission if:

  • Your charity must submit accounts if its income exceeds £25,000
  • Your charity must submit accounts and returns on request by the charity commission
  • ‘No excuses for not filing accounts’ says Charity Commission
  • Nearly one-third of charities’ accounts filed of ‘unacceptable quality’.
  • Filing accounts is key to transparency and public trust in charities.
  • Submission is the collective responsibility of the entire trustee body, not just the treasurer. 
  • Charity Commission is about to launch campaign to targeting charities in default.
