OK. What kind of receipt are you looking for?

Advocatus Diaboli · Post by **Advocatus Diaboli** » Mon Jul 27, 2015 8:25 pm

A normal donation receipt that I can use for income tax purposes.

Doubt he is 501c3 registered.

Let's just strike your name from the list of potential donors for now.

What's 501c3 ? I'm not an American. In Europe things run differently.

501c3 is for American nonprofits. Anyway, even according to EU court rulings it appears you only get tax deductions when donating to governmentally recognized charities. Our homeless gentleman is most likely not recognized as a nonprofit organization, neither are we nor will we ever be.

I don't think we can produce the receipt you are looking for.

Judgment of the Court of Justice in Case C-318/07,

"Consequently, the Court rules that the free movement of capital precludes legislation of a Member State by virtue of which, as regards gifts made to bodies recognised as having charitable status, the benefit of a deduction for tax purposes is allowed only in respect of gifts made to bodies established in that Member State, without any possibility for the taxpayer to show that a gift made to a body established in another Member State satisfies the requirements imposed by that legislation for the grant of such a benefit.

"Dear tax man, I would like to declare my princely donation of USD 5.00 to a meth head washed up in Cambodia."

Yupp, I see how that would work.

Eeerm, yeah, that's what I have expected.

Nah well, that's the problem. You got to open a little NGO - shouldn't be that difficult - just call it "help for angry, starving foreign birds" or something like this. Point is, once you've got that title, donations will flow in, and the funny thing is (if done correctly) the donations are basically coming from foreign governments. Always remember: tax evasion is the equivalent to the waste of taxes.....do I have to say more ?

If you register an NGO and run it honorably we can promote it for you. At this stage I unfortunately don't think we can do more.

Honorably towards the needy...of course, that's guaranteed. Problem is that I'm not in Cambodia...you guys have to do it.

Please forgive my ignorance and aparent stupidity but all this time I've been under the impression that my embassy was there to help me.
