Donations Tax Refund

Did you know … “You can claim 33.33 cents for every dollar you donated to charities or similar organisations.”, and this applies to The Arabic School of New Zealand, as it is registered as a Charitable Trust and is considered by the IRD as a donee organisation — More information is provided by the IRD.

We highly recommend ALL donors to our trust to take advantage of this tax credit!

Steps to claim a refund

    Request one from info@arabicschool.org.nz, include “Donation receipt request“ in the subject.

  2. Step 2A - Using MyIR (If you’re already registered)
    Follow instructions here on IRD website.
    Or …
    Step 2B - Fill-out IRD form
    Complete the IR526-2020 form — Download here.
