Details

The Charities (Annual Return) Regulations 2024 were made on 20 December 2024 and apply to all registered charities required to file with the Charity Commission with an accounting year ending on 1 January 2025 or after.

These regulations have been updated to remove questions in the ‘Locations’ and ‘Structure’ section of the form, in response to the Annual Return Public Consultation analysis.  

The updated regulations include all questions that need to be answered in Part A of the return which remain unchanged from 2023. Charities will be required to complete these in their 2025 Annual Return.
