To be eligible for tax relief, the minimum donation in any year that must be made to any one eligible charity is €250. Donations made by installments will also qualify. The arrangements for allowing tax-relief on donations are as follows:

1. For a PAYE-only taxpayer, the relief will be given on a “grossed up” basis to the charity, rather than by way of a separate claim to tax relief by the donor.

2. In the case of a donation made by an individual who pays tax on a self-assessment basis, the individual will claim the relief and there is no grossing up arrangement.

3. In the case of corporate donations, the company will claim a deduction for the donation as if it were a trading expense; again there is no grossing up arrangement. We advise that you should check with your accountant or tax advisor or call us, where you will find further details on tax efficient giving.

4.  On the standard rate of 20%, the grossed up amount of a donation of €250 is €312.50. 
(i.e. €250 x 100 ÷ 801).  The tax associated with the donation is €62.50.
