Not For Profit organisations are tax exempt, but VAT and corporate tax can apply when transactions or activities move outside of charitable objectives.
Mazars helps Not For Profits clarify these grey areas. We work with organisations to make them aware of potential tax liabilities so they are not caught out owing precious funds to the tax man.
Our specialist charity tax team works only with charities. The Mazars portfolio includes over 300 charities, including the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, The Scouts Association, as well as an expanse of public sector clients.
Mazars:
- advises charities on tax-efficient giving
- advises on gaining the maximum funds from donations, subscriptions, gifts and payroll giving
- helps structure trading and finance for a charity (including the use of trading subsidiaries)
- helps minimise VAT liability and ensure correct VAT payments
We don’t just work for charities, but participate ourselves. Mazars co-authors the Tolleys’ Charities Manual, a leading reference for other advisers and those within charities.
