Taxes
For tax purposes, TNI operates with fiscal number 0034.74.082. It pays taxes on salaries.
TNI is not considered an enterprise and as such is exempt from charging and paying VAT, save where clearly commercial activities might be involved. In the latter case, we administer VAT separately – for example, where we accept consultancies – and pay the VAT received over to the tax authorities.
TNI is acknowledged by the Dutch tax authorities as an organization that works for the general interest (ANBI: Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling). This allows those who make donations to TNI to qualify for tax rebates within the European Union.
TNI has long been formally recognized as holding the equivalent of 501(c)3 status in the USA, which status is reconfirmed annually by NGOSource, and which provides a certificate to grant makers who require it.
