In the long-term donation agreement, the donor undertakes to provide the donation<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>in the year when the agreement was concluded (or amended) and at least for three subsequent years<\/li>\n<li>at least once a year<\/li>\n<li>in the same or increasing amount<\/li>\n<li>without consideration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is not considered to be a consideration if a public-benefit organization refers to the donor\u2019s name and activity in the context of its public service provision.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong>To whom and for what purpose can donation be given?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>to public-benefit organizations to support their statutory public benefit activities<\/li>\n<li>to ecclesiastical legal entities to support their statutory activities<\/li>\n<li>to organizers of public commitments for a public commitment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The donation <strong>can always be given only in the relevant tax year without any repayment obligation<\/strong>, in the following forms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>grant<\/li>\n<li>support<\/li>\n<li>asset provided without consideration or compensation (value: the book value of the asset)<\/li>\n<li>services provided free of charge (value: direct cost of the service)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong>What are the conditions for a donation?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The donation does not result, in addition to those set out in the Act on Corporate Tax and Dividend Tax, in any financial advantage for the donor, its members (shareholders), its executive officers, any member of its board of directors or board of supervisors, its auditor, or close relatives of such persons or natural person members (shareholders) (with the proviso that any reference made to the name or to the activities of the donor shall not be regarded as financial advantage).<\/p>\n<p>Pursuant to Subsections (1) and (6) of the Act on Corporate Tax and Dividend Tax,<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>20 per cent <\/strong>of the support or grant if provided to a public-benefit organization for supporting their activities in any form: financial support, assets, services or<\/li>\n<li><strong>40 per cent<\/strong> if provided under a long-term donation agreement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>shall be deducted from the pre-tax profit.<\/p>\n<p>50 per cent of the

Fund), the K\u00e1renyh\u00edt\u00e9si Alap (Agricultural Compensation Fund) on a voluntary basis, without statutory obligation, or to higher education institutions under higher education support agreement, up to the amount of the pre-tax profit on the aggregate.<\/p>\n<p>Taxpayers <strong>may reduce their pre-tax profit only in possession of a certificate made out for tax purposes<\/strong> by the public-benefit organization or the Magyar K\u00e1rment\u0151 Alap (Hungarian Fund for Clean-up and Salvage), Nemzeti Kultur\u00e1lis Alap (National Cultural Fund) or the higher education institution.<\/p>\n<p>The amount of the donation, along with the deduction above, is recognized at the tax base, i.e. <strong>the pre-tax profit shall not be increased by this amount<\/strong> if the donor possesses a certificate made out by the organization receiving the donation for establishing the tax base.<\/p>\n<p>If the donation is not in cash, the direct cost of the service provided or the book value of the delivered product should be taken into account and indicated.\u00a0 The certificate shall be issued to the donor until the end of the tax year at the latest.<\/p>\n<p>If you would
