On the review of tax exemption status of a charity, the speakers also explained in details about the review questionnaire and relevant information that charities should provide.

		Board members, advisors and management of NGOs participated in the seminar. Participants actively raised questions, understanding how their organization can meet tax-exemption requirements.
