These lists show donee organisations that Inland Revenue has approved for the purposes of sections LD 1, DB 41 and DV 12 of the Income Tax Act 2007. When a person makes a donation to an organisation listed here, generally they can claim a tax credit (formerly rebate) for that donation or a deduction in the case of certain companies and a Maori authority. The lists were last updated 12 March 2008.

To become a donee organisation
There are certain conditions that an organisation must meet before Inland Revenue can approve it as a donee organisation. If you are involved with an organisation which wants to seek such approval, our booklet Charitable organisations (IR255) outlines the qualifying criteria.
