Advice for NGOs regarding tax exemption

Legal entities pursuing public or non-profit purposes have the possibility to exempt themselves from tax liability. In this regard, it is always the responsibility of the entity wishing to claim tax exemption to demonstrate to what extent the relevant requirements are met. In this context, it is advisable to approach the competent authorities at an early stage.

We provide support in this regard with the following services:

  • Recommendation of the legal form to be chosen and on the drafting of the necessary documents (e.g. regulations and articles of association)
  • Examination of the existing documents and recommendations for their preparation with a view to their submission to the authority that will determine the application for tax exemption
  • Preparation and submission of the application for tax exemption to the competent authority
  • Development of alternative tax-efficient solutions, should tax exemption not be a possible alternative
