Tip: To print a copy of the complete fact sheet, use the printable version.

This fact sheet outlines:

  • the requirements for entry on the Register of Environmental Organisations
  • deductible gift recipient (DGR) endorsement
  • how to apply for entry on the Register and endorsement as a DGR
  • the types of gifts that can be made to environmental organisations
  • how donors can claim deductions for their gifts, and
  • whether DGR endorsement affects income tax exemption.

Donors of gifts made to public funds on the Register of Environmental Organisations (the Register) may be entitled to income tax deductions for their gifts.

To receive tax deductible gifts, an organisation on the Register will need to be endorsed as a DGR.

Organisations currently on the Register include organisations involved in land, wildlife and rainforest conservation.
