How can Right to Sight benefit from your Tax Relief?

PAYE Donors
Every year the Revenue Commissioners allow Irish charities to claim tax back on behalf of our donors. This is tax relief that can only be claimed by the charity rather than the individual who has made the contribution. If it is not claimed, the money simply remains with the Revenue. If you are a PAYE only tax payer, and have given €250 or more in the course of a tax year, we can reclaim the tax paid on your donations. If you are Self Assessed, then we can send you a donation receipt which you can then return to the Revenue Commissioners as proof of payment. It is then up to you if you wish to donate the tax you have claimed back. Simple as that.

Corporate Donors
If a company wishes to donate to RTS the company must simply claim a deduction for the donation as if it were a trading expense. If a donation of €1,000 is made to RTS, assuming a corporation tax rate of 12.5%, relief to the company is €125 i.e. Right to Sight will receive the full €1,000 but the cost to the company will be €875. If you have any more questions or would like to know more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch and we can explain it all to you firsthand.
