# Tax deductions and reporting (Denmark)

All Danish charities approved under *Ligningsloven §8a* can offer donors a tax deduction.

### How it works for donors

For a donation to qualify, it must be given without the donor receiving anything of economic value in return.

When making a donation, the donor will be asked to certify the following:

> "I'm a Danish citizen and want a tax deduction for my donation. I hereby confirm that my donation is not being made as part of a raffle, in exchange for a ticket, or in exchange for anything else of economic value."

They will then enter their **CPR number** (for individuals) or **CVR number** (for companies). These inputs are validated to ensure they are correctly formatted and valid.

### Reporting of tax deductions

It is the responsibility of you, the charity, to report tax deductions. 

We include tax deduction information, along with CPR/CVR numbers, in all monthly reports. This data can be downloaded using the export functionality in your dashboard throughout the year.

In addition, we generate **two annual reports** for charities with tax deductions to report. These are available from **1st January until the end of June** each year and can be found in your dashboard under **‘Reports’ (Rapporter)** — look for the link above the list of your regular reports.

#### The two reports are:

1. **Excel file**
Contains donation details for all donors who have entered their CPR number and confirmed their eligibility for a tax deduction. This can be used to manually create your own report in line with SKAT’s requirements, for example, if you need to make edits before submission.
2. **CSV file**
This file is formatted exactly according to SKAT’s specifications and can be uploaded directly to SKAT.
