Non-profit organizations face a wide range of legal and tax-related challenges. The correct issuance of donation receipts, the distinction between tax-privileged special-purpose operations and taxable commercial activities, and questions relating to the use of funds are just a few examples of the many challenges faced by nonprofit organizations – all of which require in-depth specialist knowledge. 

In the sovereign sphere as well, distinguishing between sovereign functions and commercial activities is crucial – especially when establishing public enterprises (Betriebe gewerblicher Art, BgA). Errors in tax classification can result in financial disadvantages – or even the loss of charitable status.
