The Coral Triangle Center is a registered Indonesian nonprofit. General charitable donations in Indonesia are not automatically deductible from personal income tax - only specific categories qualify under Government Regulation PP 93/2010 (donations for national disaster relief, research and development, education, sports development, and social-infrastructure built through approved channels). Zakat, infak and sedekah paid to a nationally licensed Lembaga Amil Zakat (LAZ) or to BAZNAS are deductible from gross taxable income under Law 23/2011 - proof of payment (Bukti Setor Zakat) is required. International donors can give through PayPal, GlobalGiving, or direct bank transfer (Indonesian banks: BCA, Mandiri, BNI, BRI); domestic donors typically use bank transfer, Kitabisa, BenihBaik, or e-wallets (GoPay, OVO, DANA, ShopeePay). Consult an Indonesian tax adviser for guidance specific to your situation.

You can verify The Coral Triangle Center's legal status in three ways. First, search Indonesia's official AHU registry at https://ahu.go.id/pencarian/yayasan (for Yayasan) or /pencarian/perkumpulan (for Perkumpulan) using the organisation's full Indonesian name - every legally-registered Yayasan or Perkumpulan must appear in that database with its SK Menkumham (decree number). Second, ask the organisation for its NPWP (taxpayer number) and the most recent akta yayasan or akta perkumpulan (notarial deed) - legitimate Indonesian nonprofits will share these on request. Third, check whether the organisation publishes annual financial reports (laporan keuangan) and a list of its board (pengurus) - both are required for legitimate Indonesian foundations under Law 28/2004.

You can donate to The Coral Triangle Center directly through its donation page (https://coraltrianglecenter.org/donate/). Indonesian charities typically accept bank transfers (Bank BCA, Mandiri, BNI, BRI), e-wallets (GoPay, OVO, DANA, ShopeePay, LinkAja), and donations via Indonesian fundraising platforms such as Kitabisa or BenihBaik. International donors can usually give via PayPal, GlobalGiving, or international wire transfer; remittance services like Wise or Western Union also work but the fee structure varies. Always confirm the recipient's bank-account name and NPWP / registration number before sending funds, and ask for a written acknowledgement (tanda terima donasi).
