I am a UK taxpayer and I want Polka Theatre to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations made for the four past years prior to this date and all further gifts I make from the date of this declaration – until I notify you otherwise. I confirm that I am a UK tax payer and have paid or will pay an amount of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax for each tax year (6 April to 5 April) that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all the charities or Community Amateur Sports Clubs (CASCs) that I donate to will reclaim on my gifts for that tax year. I understand that other taxes such as VAT and Council Tax do not qualify and that if I pay less Income Tax an or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference. I will inform you should my tax status, name or address change.
