Only certain organisations can receive tax deductible gifts. They are called deductible gift recipients (DGRs). All DGRs have to be endorsed by us, unless they are named specifically in the income tax law.
Organisations seeking DGR endorsement need to use a DGR endorsement application pack.
DGR endorsement application pack
This pack contains:
an application form
instructions on how to complete it
the publication GiftPack.
The pack will help you to work out whether your organisation is eligible to be endorsed and help you complete the application form correctly. This will reduce the need for us to contact you for further information.
Do not complete the application form until you have read the instructions and the guide to make sure, to the best of your knowledge, that your organisation is entitled to be endorsed and meets all the necessary requirements for the DGR category you have selected.
Failure to meet the requirements will result in your endorsement application being refused.
Schedules
Depending on the DGR category you are seeking endorsement for, you may also need to complete a schedule to lodge with the application form. See the instructions for more information.
