Requirements

SECTION 30-229   Australian Business Register must show deductibility of gifts to deductible gift recipient  

30-229(1)  
If a ^* deductible gift recipient has an ^* ABN, the ^* Australian Business Registrar must enter in the ^* Australian Business Register in relation to the deductible gift recipient a statement that it is a deductible gift recipient for a specified period.

Note 1:

An entry (or lack of entry) of a statement required by this section does not affect whether you can deduct a gift to the fund, authority or institution.

This section will apply to all entities and government entities that are endorsed as deductible gift recipients under Subdivision 30-BA , because they must have ABNs to be endorsed. It will also apply to other entities described or named in Subdivision 30-A if they have ABNs.

If the ^* deductible gift recipient is a deductible gift recipient only because it is endorsed under Subdivision 30-BA as a deductible gift recipient for the operation of a fund, authority or institution, the statement must name the fund, authority or institution.

30-229(2A)  

If:

(a) the *deductible gift recipient is:

(i) a fund, authority or institution; or

(ii) a deductible gift recipient only because it is endorsed under Subdivision 30-BA as a deductible gift recipient for the operation of a fund, authority or institution; and
