Hi Gordon
Do you not think that Revenue is right here?
The tax exemption is for donations to Irish registered charities.
If people want to donate to foreign charities, they should not be getting tax relief on it.

But don't they advertise the fact so there is a benefit?Not sure of that argument. Irish companies regularly donate to charity and get tax relief for doing so.
The correct position should be to deny the tax relief (i.e. the corporation tax deduction) where the donation is to a body that doesn’t have a CHY Number. This BIK stuff is mad unless it’s a case of Burgess Enterprises Limited making a charitable ‘donation’ to the Bianco Burgesso Chianti Relief Fund.
The donation was €20K, it was to an established well know foreign charity that I am not connected to in any way shape of form.
