Claiming Your Donation Tax Credits
Claim back 1/3 of your Greenpeace donations in your 2023-24 tax rebate.
Are Greenpeace Aotearoa donations tax deductible?
Yes! You can claim tax credits on every donation over $5 to Greenpeace Aotearoa. Every year in April, we will send you a tax receipt, totalling your donations to Greenpeace over the previous tax year (up to 31 March).
You can claim back one third of every donation you make that is over $5. For example, if you donate $100, you can claim back $33.33.
Donating your rebate to Greenpeace directly is the fastest and most effective way to boost your positive impact for the Earth. You can donate your rebate here.
If you’d like a Greenpeace tax receipt for your donations at another point in the year, reach out to our Supporter Relations team on 0800 22 33 44 or [email protected].

I’d like to donate my tax credit back to Greenpeace
Thank you for choosing to donate your tax credit. Your donation has already made an impact for the earth, and by donating your tax credit back to Greenpeace, you can make even more of a difference.
Recently, we saw a jarring reminder that our fight to protect the Earth is very real.
Greenpeace International and Greenpeace in the US have been hit with a penalty of more than US$660 million (or 1.15 billion NZ dollars) after a shocking court ruling in favour of fossil fuel company Energy Transfer. It threatens Greenpeace’s very existence in the US, and they are preparing to fight back.
This attack on Greenpeace is coming in the same year that we mark 40 years since the bombing of the Rainbow Warrior by French Government agents here in Tāmaki Auckland in 1985. The bombing was an act of state terror designed to stop Greenpeace from sending the Rainbow Warrior to protest nuclear testing in the Pacific.
It was meant to stop us, to instill fear, and to silence our voices, but it failed. Instead, our movement just grew stronger. The campaign to end nuclear testing was won.
Now, 40 years later, Big Oil companies like Energy Transfer are trying to intimidate us again – attempting to silence us, to stop us from speaking out against their destruction of our planet.
Donating your rebate to Greenpeace can help us strengthen our efforts at this crucial moment. We can’t do it without you.
