With evolving social environment resulting in new service needs, charities should set up or update their bookkeeping and accounting systems to fit their latest mode of operations. This is important not only for meeting the latest accounting standards but also for satisfying the different reporting requirements of various sponsors and Government departments. Meanwhile, the Inland Revenue Department’s (“IRD”) practice in review charities’ tax exemption status is evolving. A tax-exempt charity is not automatically exempt from tax for all its income, so it should pay attention to its tax obligations.
In view of the above, charities should ensure that their accounting and tax policies are up-to-date to prepare for reporting to / reviews by their sponsors and /or Government departments.
