Strong partners for a
strong society.
Non-profit organisations, associations and public-law entities make an essential contribution to the common good – whether in social, cultural, scientific or religious fields. Behind this important work, however, are often complex tax, legal and organisational challenges. Topics such as charitable status, tax-deductibility of donations and the proper tax treatment of subsidies require specialised expertise.
Our dedicated team of experts is your reliable partner. From start-up consulting and ongoing support to the strategic development of your organisation, we offer practical and individual solutions. We assist you in reviewing charitable status, optimising articles of association, statutes and partnership agreements for tax purposes, handling the tax treatment of donations and sponsorships, and filing applications for inclusion in the official list of fiscally preferentially treated donation recipients.
In addition, we support you with accounting, financial planning and payroll services, and advise on VAT obligations, input tax deduction or the assessment of potential activities regarding “Liebhaberei” (renting/projects that do not lead to total profit within a special period of time).
We help you secure tax compliance and financial stability for your organisation, so you can focus on what truly matters: Your valuable work for society.
