Tax benefits & ANBI status

The Centraal Museum has a cultural ANBI status. In addition, since 2012, you have been able to deduct your donation for tax purposes, with an increase factor. As a result, the amount you deduct is higher than your actual donation. Below, we explain this Giving Act.

GIVE LAW

Since 2012, there has been an extension for deducting ordinary donations. Donations to the Centraal Museum may be increased by 25% to calculate your deduction. You can apply this increase over a donation amount of up to €5,000. The increase is therefore subject to a maximum of €1,250. Above €5,000, your donations still remain deductible, but the 25% increase does not apply to the amount above €5,000. N.B. Until 2023, the rate of deductions will be further reduced annually. As of 2023, the rate is 37.10%. Click here for more information.

Let's say you donate €1,000 a year. For the deduction, you may increase this amount to 125%. Then your deduction is therefore €1,250. At the top rate of 49.5%, for every €1,000, you will therefore receive €618.75 back from the tax authorities. A donation of €1,000 thus costs you €381.25.

NON-PERIODIC DONATIONS

Tax restrictions apply to non-periodic donations. You can only deduct such a donation from your income if it exceeds 1% of the aggregate income. The maximum for non-periodic donations is set at 10% of the aggregate income before applying the personal deduction. It may be cheaper for you to spread your donation over several years. You can then submit a request for a provisional refund to the tax authorities immediately after the donation.

PERIODIC DONATIONS

Periodic donations are gifts in the form of fixed and regular periodic benefits, spread over 5 or more years and that are paid out at least annually. There are no restrictions such as a threshold amount or a maximum for periodic donations.

Do you want to support the Centraal Museum from your company? There are also options for which tax benefits may apply. For more information, please contact Paul Schuiling at pschuiling@centraalmuseum.nl or 0657682951.
