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" (or go to the Revenue Website) 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.
