Increase your donation for free
Did you know that IQFA can claim your tax on your donated amount,
if you donate at least €250.00 in a year? This increases your donation by about 45%. All donations over €250 and under €1,000,000 qualify!
You only need to complete one CHY 4 form (below) to cover your donations over a single year or a CHY3 form to cover 5 years
Example
Joan donated €1,000 to an approved body in 2020. The approved body can claim a refund of the tax Joan has paid. The tax rate is 31%, so this means that the donation of €1,000 is 69% of the total donation.
To calculate the relief, the total donation is grossed up as follows:€1000/69) x 100 = €1449.27
The refund amount that can be claimed by the approved body is €449.27 Once Joan has completed either the Enduring Certificate or Annual Certificate, the approved body can claim the refund

How to Calculate the relief on donations from companies.
The approved body has the benefit of receiving €1,000, but the cost to the company of donating is only €875 (€1,000 – €125).
The company simply claims a tax deduction on the donation as if it were a trading expense. There is no grossing-up arrangement in this case.

Gift Aid in Northern Ireland
If you pay tax, Gift Aid is a scheme by which you can give a sum of money to charity and the charity can normally reclaim basic rate tax on your gift from HMRC. That increases the value of the gift you make to the charity. So for example, if you give £10 using Gift Aid that gift is worth £12.50 to the charity. You can give any amount, large or small, regular or one-off.
If you are a UK taxpayer, for every £1 you donate, IQFA will receive an additional 25p from HMRC. All you need to do is complete a Gift Aid Declaration. You only need to complete the Declaration once, as it will cover any future donations you make. There is no minimum amount you need to donate – the only requirement is that you are a UK taxpayer. It’s that simple.
