Donations Tax and Charitable Giving Structuring

Gifts of money or assets can trigger donations tax, while giving to approved organisations can attract deductions. This programme untangles the rules so that individuals and companies give in the most tax efficient way. Delegates learn to structure and document donations correctly.

What you will be able to do

  • Identify transactions that attract donations tax
  • Apply exemptions and annual thresholds
  • Calculate donations tax and who is liable to pay
  • Structure deductible giving to approved bodies
  • Document donations to support deductions and exemptions
