Does the ASF include GST in payments?

Grants paid by the ASF are a taxable supply, so if your organisation is registered for GST, we will add 10% when remitting funds to your bank account

GST-registered organisations will find a recipient-created tax invoice (RCTI) in the Payments section of the ASF platform. This will help in passing on the GST portion of payments to the ATO. 

Updated GST rules for New Platform

Under the ASF’s new Grant Agreement, grant payments are no longer a taxable supply so GST will not be added to remittances in the new platform.

This doesn’t mean fundraisers registered for GST are out of pocket in any way, it just means they no longer have to include ASF grant payments in their Business Activity Statements for the ATO simplifying the process for you.
