Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging (m.g.s.) is a health organization based in MAASTRICHT, Netherlands. Registration: 805537454. Vereniging Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging is classified as a sports & recreation organization registered in Netherlands.
Vereniging Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging is registered in the Netherlands. Vereniging Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging has ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) status, so donations are tax-deductible. You can deduct gifts that exceed 1% of your threshold income (minimum 60 euros). Periodic gifts (committed for 5+ years) are fully deductible without threshold.
Vereniging Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging is a Dutch association (vereniging) - a membership-based legal entity whose members make decisions in a general assembly. Verenigingen with 'volledige rechtsbevoegdheid' (full legal capacity) are registered by notarial deed at the KvK and can hold ANBI status. A vereniging differs from a stichting in that it is member-driven: members hold the voting power in the general assembly, whereas a stichting is governed solely by its board. It is registered with the Kamer van Koophandel (KvK), the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, with RSIN 805537454.
You can verify Vereniging Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging's legal status in three ways. First, look up the RSIN directly on the Belastingdienst ANBI register: https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/connect/nl/aftrek-en-kortingen/content/anbi-status-controleren and enter 805537454. The result page confirms whether the organisation currently holds ANBI status - a prerequisite for tax-deductible donations in the Netherlands. Second, search the Kamer van Koophandel public registry at https://www.kvk.nl/zoeken/ - the KvK record shows the legal form (Stichting / Vereniging / Coöperatie), registered address, board composition (where disclosed), and the date of incorporation. Third, every ANBI is legally required by the publicatieplicht to publish on its own website: the policy plan, financial statements, an overview of activities, board composition, and remuneration policy. A working ANBI page with current financials is the strongest signal of legitimacy beyond the registry. If all three sources agree on name, address and ANBI status, the organisation is legitimate.
Contact Vereniging Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging directly for current donation methods. Dutch charities typically accept iDEAL (the standard Dutch online-banking payment method), Tikkie payment requests, Bancontact for cross-border donors, SEPA bank transfer to the organisation's IBAN (account numbers starting with NL), and online payment processors (Mollie, Stripe). Many larger Dutch charities use platforms like Geef.nl, GeefSamen, Kentaa, and Pifworld for online fundraising. International donors can give via SEPA (the Netherlands is in the eurozone, so intra-EU transfers are cheap), PayPal, or GlobalGiving. For donations to count as a 'periodieke gift' - fully tax-deductible without a threshold - a written agreement (overeenkomst periodieke gift) committing for at least five years is required. Always confirm the recipient's RSIN and ANBI status before sending funds intended for the tax deduction.
As an ANBI, Vereniging Maastrichtse Gehandicapten Sportvereniging is legally required to publish the following information on its own website, free of charge and without a login (the 'publicatieplicht' obligation under Uitvoeringsregeling AWR 1994 art. 1a): the policy plan, an overview of the past year's activities, the financial statements (balance sheet, profit-and-loss, explanatory notes), board composition with names, and the remuneration policy for directors and key staff. Larger ANBIs (turnover above €50,000) must also publish a fuller financial report using the Belastingdienst's standard ANBI publication form. If you cannot find these documents on the organisation's website, that is a red flag worth raising with the board before donating.
