Send a charity's annual return

You must use this service to report your charity’s total income and expenditure, even if you do not need to send a full annual return.

Report within 10 months of the end of your financial year, and send a full annual return if either:

  • your charity is a charitable incorporated organisation

There are different rules if your charity is registered in Scotland or Northern Ireland.
