ANBI status
CILC is registered as a Dutch public benefit organisation and is therefore able to benefit from ANBI regulations. Among other things, this entails that we can receive private donations to support our work.
The promotion and protection of the Rule of Law in Europe and throughout the world requires commitment and support from the citizens of Europe. Much of our work is funded by governments – mostly the Netherlands government – and by the European Commission. These bodies however expect us not to be fully dependent on their funding, and it is our own objective to remain financially independent of any single current or future donor.
Due to our ANBI status, donations to CILC are tax-deductible in the Netherlands.
