Have you actually RTFM? :-) The "notice" for form 2042 (income tax, which I assume is the one you're filling in) has a paragraph about European entities on page 19. http://www.impots.gouv.fr/portal/deploiement/p1/fichedescriptiveformulaire_9709/fichedescriptiveformulaire_9709.pdf http://vosdroits.service-public.fr/particuliers/F426.xhtml confirms it. The WHS website also has an explanation about that on http://www.wauland.de/en/donation.html stating that it fits the requirements. So you can deduct 66% of your donation, up to 20% of your taxable income. The appropriate location is 7VC. > If the WHS' status doesn't help EU tax payers deduct it a portion of > the donation from their taxes, the deal looks overly expensive (I > don't think that currency exchange has a 5% fee, does it?). Also take into account that we'd be transferring money both ways when we want to pay something in Europe (travel reimbursements for instance). -- Alexandre Franke _______________________________________________ engagement-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/engagement-list
