Tax deductibility of donations

Donations to associations are tax deductible.

Our association, SRPA Veeweyde, is on the list of approved institutions, which can be found here on the federal public finance website:

If you would like to help animals, your donation of 40 euros or more per year is tax deductible! To continue our mission and offer the best to the animals we take in, we need funding. That’s why your contribution is essential.

A tax deduction is a reduction in the taxable income of an individual or organization, based on certain eligible expenses or contributions. This means that when you fill in your tax return, you can subtract certain eligible expenses, such as your donations, from your total income before your taxes are calculated. In this way, the reduction reduces the amount of tax you have to pay.

Under what conditions are donations tax deductible in Belgium?

For the donor to benefit from a tax reduction, the donation must meet certain conditions relating to the amount, the beneficiary and the type of donation.

The minimum donation is 40 euros, per calendar year and per organization. This sum can be spread over the year in several instalments. However, to be eligible for tax relief, donations must not exceed 10% of total net income, or exceed €392,200.

We will issue a tax certificate for your donation.

Please note: the indication of the national number is a legal obligation (art. 323/3 § 3 CIR 92). As an approved organization that issues tax certificates for its donors, we will ask you for your national number for this purpose.

So don’t forget to give us your national number at compta@veeweyde.be

What is the tax deduction for donations made in Belgium?

  • For donations made by individuals
    In 2024, individuals can take advantage of a 45% tax reduction if the total amount of their donations amounts to at least €40 per year. Note that the deduction is only granted if the total amount is no more than 10% of net income, or no more than €392,200 (2023 tax year, 2022 income). Please note: this rate may vary from year to year.
    If you wish to make a larger donation on your death, it is also possible to leave a legacy to our association. For more information, please contact our bequests and wills officer, Ms Céline Philips, on 02/527.10.50 or by e-mail at dons.legs@veeweyde.be.
