Completing the “Deduction for donations to non-profit entities” table. Law 49/2002» (page 18 ter of model 200)

Keep in mind:

The percentages referred to in this section are those in effect for tax periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

This table, which sets out the different deduction percentages applicable to donations depending on whether they are made to priority patronage activities, is divided into two sections. In addition to each having a row for each year, for the years 2015 and subsequent years, each year has been divided into two rows to differentiate whether donations are made without repetition or with repetition to the same entity. In addition, a third section has been added which will contain the total amounts of the deductions included in the first two sections of the table. Finally, a section is added in which the basis for the deduction for donations to non-profit entities must be stated.

1. General donations

In this section, you must record the amounts of the deduction for donations to non-profit entities that apply the special tax regime of Law 49/2002, but that are not beneficiaries of priority patronage activities , generated in the years 2013 to 2023, and that have been able to or can be transferred to future tax periods. Furthermore, in the rows corresponding to the 2015 and subsequent fiscal years, a distinction must be made between whether the donations were made without repetition to the same entity, in which case the general rate of 40 percent is applied to the deduction base, or whether they were made repeatedly to the same entity, in which case the increased rate of 50 percent is applied. Finally, it should be noted that the deduction base cannot exceed 15 percent of the taxable base for the tax period.

  • In the column "Pending/generated deduction" The amounts of the deduction generated both in the current tax period (2024) and in a period prior to the current one (2014 to 2023) and which are pending application at the beginning of the tax period that is the subject of the declaration will be recorded in the corresponding boxes. Starting with the 2015 financial year, it will be necessary to differentiate whether the donations that give the right to deduction have been made without repetition or with repetition to the same entity.

    The line "Donations to non-profit entities (Law 49/2002) 2024(*)" It should only be completed if it concerns pending donations corresponding to a previous tax period starting in 2024.

  • In column "Applied in this settlement" the part (or all, if applicable) of the amounts recorded in the previous column "Pending/generated deduction" relating to deductions for donations to non-profit entities, which are applied in the settlement corresponding to the period subject to settlement, will be recorded. Starting with the 2015 financial year, it will be necessary to differentiate whether the donations that give the right to deduction have been made without repetition or with repetition to the same entity.

  • In column "Pending application in future periods" the positive difference between the amount of deductions pending at the beginning of the tax period or generated in said period in the column "Pending/generated deduction" and the amount of deductions applied in the settlement of the tax period subject to declaration in the column "Applied in this settlement" will be recorded. This amount will remain pending application in future tax periods, unless the tax period being declared is the last one in which the corresponding deduction can be applied, in which case the outstanding deduction balance would be lost. Starting with the 2015 financial year, it will be necessary to differentiate whether the donations that give the right to deduction have been made without repetition or with repetition to the same entity.

  • In line Subtotal donations 2014 The total amount of donations made in the 2014 financial year will be collected for each column.

  • In line "Subtotal donations from 2015 to 2024 without repeated donations to the same entity" The total amount of donations made from 2015 to 2024, made without repetition to the same entity, will be collected for each column.

  • In line "Subtotal donations from 2015 to 2024 with repeated donations to the same entity" The total amount of donations made repeatedly to the same entity from 2015 to 2024 will be collected for each column.

  • In line "Total" The total amount of deductions for donations to non-profit entities made from the years 2014 to 2024 will be collected for each column.

2. Donations for priority patronage activities and others with the right to increased deduction

In order to be able to separately record the increased rates applicable to donations made to priority patronage activities from those that are not, this table must include the amounts of the deduction for donations to non-profit entities that apply the special tax regime of Law 49/2002 and that are beneficiaries of priority patronage activities, generated in the years 2014 to 2024, and which could have been or could be carried forward to future tax periods. Furthermore, in the rows corresponding to the years 2015 and subsequent years, a distinction must be made between whether the donations were made without repetition to the same entity, in which case a percentage of 45 percent is applied to the deduction base (general percentage of 40 percent increased by 5 percent), or whether they were made repeatedly to the same entity, applying a percentage of 55 percent (general percentage increased from 50 percent is increased by 5 percent). Finally, it should be noted that the deduction base cannot exceed 20 percent of the taxable base for the tax period (the general maximum limit of 15 percent is increased by 5 percentage points).

  • In the column "Pending/generated deduction" The amounts of the deduction generated both in the current tax period (2024) and in a period prior to the current one (2014 to 2023) and which are pending application at the beginning of the tax period that is the subject of the declaration will be recorded in the corresponding boxes. Starting with the 2015 financial year, it will be necessary to differentiate whether the donations that give the right to deduction have been made without repetition or with repetition to the same entity.

    The line "Donations to non-profit entities (Law 49/2002) 2024(*)" It should only be completed if it concerns pending donations corresponding to a previous tax period starting in 2024.

  • In column "Applied in this settlement" the part (or the totality, if applicable) of the amounts recorded in the previous column "Pending/generated deduction" relating to deductions for donations for priority patronage activities, which are applied in the settlement corresponding to the period subject to settlement, will be recorded. Starting with the 2015 financial year, it will be necessary to differentiate whether the donations that give the right to deduction have been made without repetition or with repetition to the same entity.

  • In column "Pending application in future periods" the positive difference between the amount of deductions pending at the beginning of the tax period or generated in said period in the column "Pending/generated deduction" and the amount of deductions applied in the settlement of the tax period subject to declaration in the column "Applied in this settlement" will be recorded. This amount will remain pending application in future tax periods, unless the tax period being declared is the last one in which the corresponding deduction can be applied, in which case the outstanding deduction balance would be lost. Starting with the 2015 financial year, it will be necessary to differentiate whether the donations that give the right to deduction have been made without repetition or with repetition to the same entity.

  • In line Subtotal donations 2014 The total amount of donations made in the 2014 financial year will be collected for each column.

  • In line "Subtotal donations from 2015 to 2024 without repeated donations to the same entity" The total amount of donations made from 2015 to 2024, made without repetition to the same entity, will be collected for each column.

  • In line "Subtotal donations from 2015 to 2024 with repeated donations to the same entity" The total amount of donations made repeatedly to the same entity from 2015 to 2024 will be collected for each column.

  • In line "Total" The total amount of deductions for donations for priority patronage activities made from 2014 to 2024 will be collected for each column.

3. Total deductions for non-profit entities (Law 49/2002)

This section will include, for each column, the total amount of deductions for donations to non-profit entities made from 2014 to 2024, as described in the two previous sections.

4. Basis for deduction for donations to non-profit entities for the tax period

In box [00974] you will record the total amount of donations, gifts and contributions made to non-profit entities during the tax period to which the declaration corresponds, which have served as a basis for calculating the deduction for donations to these entities.
