Tax Efficient Giving

PAYE Taxpayers

Contributions of €250+ in a year qualify for a tax benefit to The Carers Association equivalent to an additional 20% or 42% of your gift, depending on your tax rate.  Just complete the Revenue Commissioner's "Appropriate Certificate" (download here or go to www.revenue.ie/leaflets.CHY2) and send it to us along with your gift, we can reclaim the tax for The Carers Association.

Self Assessed Taxpayers

Charitable giving can be claimed as a tax-deductible expense on your tax return.  For example,on a 20% standard rate of tax, a gift of €500 would actually cost you €400.

Corporate Taxpayers

Companies may simply claim a deduction at the corporate tax rate (currently 12.5%) for their donation as if it were a trading expense.
